“Great, hardworking man who puts his best foot forward, and then some... I've known Josh now for 5 years and every moment was one to remember. Always looked up to him and still admire his skills, the effort and persistence he puts not only into his artwork but his life as well. I look forward to seeing how far he goes. I hold him in high regards as an artist, worker, a great friend and colleague, he is truly an outstanding person, who deserves a much higher critique than I could ever put into words.”
