My name is Josh Kirkham. I'm a Landscape Painter out of Las Vegas NV! I’ve been painting for just over 13 months and I have more than 90 sales in my young career.
My intro into painting was a sad one... My wife lost her mother in late 2018. In order to cope with the sadness of our family’s loss, I started watching Bob Ross’s old shows on Netflix. For my birthday in 2019, my wife bought me the Bob Ross Brush Set and Paints! I quickly got to work painting using the techniques I learned from Ross' tutorials.
After a short while, I stopped trying to copy Ross’s Paintings and started creating my own compositions using the Wet on Wet technique his books had taught me.
Today I have my own YouTube channel where I share the
techniques I've learned over my short career in an attempt to help inexperienced painters get over the anxiety of trying something new.
Josh would love hearing from you. You can connect with him and/or purchase his work by clicking the links below.
