Josh Wide2

Josh Jensen

Josh was trained in representational oil paintings, but his work has evolved to more abstract themes in mixed media that focus on color and movement. His body of work is influenced by his established career as a marriage and family therapist. He finds that continuing to practice both art and psychotherapy is the perfect informants for one another.

His distinct style continues to progress as he expands his vocabulary and practice of mark-making and color composition. His work has always sought to strike a balance of exploration, seeking a high degree of access to "accidents" and commitment, using established techniques and standards.

Josh believes the best art has a strong concept along with a strong aesthetic. He hopes that his work expresses a sense of gratitude and beauty, urging the viewer to see more than what initially meets the eye.
