ABOUT THE BOOK

(From The Publisher)

Joseph is a Web Developer and artist, whose insatiable drive and burning passion for the arts has led to the birth of The Virtues Unveiled, his first illustrated book. The Virtues Unveiled is an allegorical and inspirational book, with the author’s un-cropped and un-cut original artwork fused with lyrical themes that offer the viewer engaging interpretations of the artist’s renderings. Most of his figures express a different passion of the soul, allowing the artistic pieces to tell a story, which makes his work an art of persuasion. Also included, the author walks you through the step-by-step process by which he creates his drawings. Filled with harmony, beauty, and perspective, The Virtues Unveiled is a celebration of the arts in the 21^st century and is greatly influenced by the Baroque style.

It all started at age twelve when Joseph drew a picture of King David and showed it to a nun. The nun was so impressed, she encouraged him to pursue his craft as an artist. Joseph did just the opposite - he pursued the Sciences. It wasn’t until over a decade later that he returned to his first love – Art. He spent several more years refining his craft, and on his own, he studied classical antiquity, absorbed it, and integrated it into his work. As an artist, he is self-taught. He currently resides in Houston, Texas.
