Item Description

The winner will receive a signed print by Joseph Watson titled "Community". 

The picture measures 10.75"x16" and the canvas board measures 13"x20".

From the Artist:

"Every neighborhood has its good and bad qualities.  This particular neighborhood is Watts, CA.  When I took my first visit to the Watts Tower, I noticed various beautifully painted houses along the way. These houses really added charm to the neighborhood and I wanted to let the world in on these treasures."

About the Artist:

Joseph Watson is a graduate of the prestigious Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, CA. He has established himself as a strong and reliable force in the Las Vegas Arts Community and is quickly making his presence known more broadly. He has artwork is available at Michael’s Arts & Crafts and Hobby Lobby. The Pacific Tile Art Studio also sells Joseph’s arts and murals.

The Joseph Watson Collection of art consists of two styles of fine art. The first is the sophisticated décor style. This is his commercially accepted art. It involved subject matter such as ocean life to delicious seafood dishes to African influenced imagery. The surface is swirled with gesso, and then painted with acrylics. The result is a rich balanced piece that would be welcome in any well-designed interior.

The second style is more “street.” This style targets the younger market and creates imagery ranging from busy, urban flea market scenes to uncomfortable bus rides. This method is usually a mix between tight pencil sketching combined with the latest digital painting techniques to create some of the most striking scenes.

Joseph is usually spotted at the Arts Factory or walking around the massive First Friday event in the Arts District.
