Nature's Paintbrush
Nature's Paintbrush
I grew up in a house of artists and became inspired by the painting medium at a young age. This lead me to pursue capturing landscapes that were unique, vibrant and other-worldly. To my surprise, these places are located around the California deserts. These locations exhibit nature in its pure and organic form, as well as those touched by man's excavations. The main objective of my journey is to present the stunning beauty of earth and the importance of preserving our home.

Josué Silva is a photographer whose work is primarily influenced by the painting medium. As a child, his father taught him how to paint while always encouraging creativity and individuality. Visiting art museums and traveling became key foundations which later helped create his style. While abstract in appearance, Josué maintains the authenticity and essence of each captured landscape. His work encourages viewers to uniquely interpret the abstraction using their individual experiences. The simplistic patterns, shapes and textures reflect the natural beauty of the world in new and compelling ways.
