Joe Ded
Joe Ded (aka Joe Walsh) is self taught artist. It’s not surprising because where could one possibly learn such an extraordinary style? Joe is a strange man who possesses a mysterious and boundless imagination. His inner world is full of fantastical images which he exorcises onto the canvas. He captures them brilliantly with a technical expertise which few can master. Joe’s art would not exist unless he possessed both unbridled imagination and unlimited skills.
His artworks are mind-boggling, mind-blowing and mind-expanding representations of his adventures into other dimensions; their purpose is to release the creatures that dwell inside his cerebellum. He spews them out onto the canvas, thrusting them forth for the masses to see - corrupting the minds of all who encounter them.
These works captivate you by their vivid colors, bizarre shapes and provocative ideas. His mind warping visuals excite the retina and grate at the brain.
Getting these images out of his mind and onto the canvas helps him sleep at night. See what happens once they get into your mind………..
Joe welcomes commissions. He has done portraits, street art, graphic design and more traditional arts – all his particular style. He works quickly and efficiently. He can transfix your ideas, dreams and nightmares into drawings and paintings. Psychedelic characters come to life in Alice in Wonderland-like landscapes. No matter how far you stretch your imagination, Joe will be one step ahead of you with his brushes and pencils.
