Joshua Chambers
Joshua Chambers is a painter who works in acrylic, pen & ink, and
printmaking. His style has often been described as illustrative,
illusive, and “odd”. With a love of theatre but a quiet nature
Joshua’s work echoes the philosophy of absurdist playwrights and
deconstructed sets. Receiving his Master of Fine Arts from Louisiana
Tech University and his Bachelors of Art from Northeastern State
University in Oklahoma, Joshua’s work has been published in New
American Paintings, Creative Quarterly, and Studio Visit Magazine.
Chambers work can currently be found in the Graphite Gallery in New
Orleans, Ann Connelly Fine Art in Baton Rouge, and in permanent
collections in the Masur Museum of Art in Louisiana, and Lessedra
Gallery in Bulgaria. Chambers lives in Bossier Parish with his wife
Leigh Anne and their daughter Sophia.
