Josh definitely challenges himself with these interesting three-dimensional pieces. The use of perspective is very aquarium like. I enjoy his conceptual pieces with the security camera. I wonder how long it takes him to fully render out these works? I can also see where he draws inspiration from the scientific text book illustrations. Overall very nice work and use of color too.
