START LEARNING NOW

Anyone can master abstract expressionism, starting today!

Ever felt like abstract expressionism is too intimidating to try? Do terms like “composition,” “color theory,” and “finishing a piece” sound overwhelming?

The truth is, anyone can create stunning abstract art with the proper guidance and practice. My course, 'Inner Landscapes: Techniques in Abstract Expressionism,' will teach you essential skills, from experimenting with materials to mastering composition and color decisions.

You’ll explore tools, techniques, and workflows while cultivating your own creative voice.

Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to elevate your craft, this course invites you to unfold the art that already lives within you.

Let’s start your abstract expressionism journey today!

Hi, I'm Josh!

My journey in art began with a love for drawing, first for fun and later as a response to praise for my realistic skills. Despite refining my craft, I saw art as an impractical career and majored in Psychology, eventually choosing to double major in Fine Art. This decision led me to confront my skepticism toward contemporary art; initially dismissive, I was challenged by a patient professor to engage more deeply. Through study and open-minded observation, I found myself moved by abstract works in ways I couldn’t explain, learning to trust the ineffable, emotional experiences art can evoke.

After college, I became a Marriage and Family Therapist while my painting evolved toward abstract expressionism. Surprisingly, I discovered parallels between therapy and abstract art: both require intuition, spontaneity, and honest expression. In painting as in therapy, the process unfolds step by step, guided by imagination and openness rather than strict precision, inviting unexpected meaning and connection.

I hope my art sparks viewers’ imaginations, encouraging them to see beyond what I intended. Influenced by thinkers like Ian McGilchrist, I embrace the intuitive, holistic wisdom of the brain’s right hemisphere, which values symbolism and the unconscious. While I still admire realism, I’m increasingly drawn to a non-literal, conversational approach to both art and faith, believing, as Emily Dickinson suggested, that truth is often best revealed indirectly, and, as Wendell Berry wrote, “The impeded stream is the one that sings.”
