William "Josh" Joshua
Live Party/Event Caricatures
|
| I was in a gifted kids program in gradeschool that got me introduced into the fine arts and I excelled in art specifically doing still lives and portraits at a professional artists level at the age of 12. I went to Pitt for biology and graduated Lincoln University with a degree in philosophy with an emphasis in pre-law, so I started selling cell phones. Lol. My professors in college and teachers in all grades could tell you that I've always loved the art of caricature, whether bedazzled or begrudgingly so. I tried my hand at them for the first time at the Bob Marley festival in Wilmington Delaware and have been doing them ever since and I am a member of the ISCA the biggest group of cool artists in the world (we like to exaggerate). I don't really exaggerate so much in my caricatures most of the time, but I create somewhat flattering images (I've been told) of my guests, but at times also have "victims" instead of "guests," when I can tell that I have a very open minded or evil person sitting before me. Usually, per request, will do whatever is asked of me by the individual, unless I can think of a fitting alternative that can range from funny and flattering, to tear inducing to nostalgic, to hillarious and horrendous. Hire me for your event and if you stick around my easel for long enough, and I invitingly welcome onlookers, you will see more than that.
