Art: Joshua Petker

These are some of my favorite paintings by California based artist Joshua Petker. Joshua began his artistic career as a graffiti street artist before exhibiting these figurative works. I find that transition fascinating although not surprising as many graffiti artists are incredibly talented. A couple of his prints can be purchased here while his full portfolio can be found here.

    Smoke and waves in pastel make Joshua's pieces interesting.
