Joshua Burbank: Fine Art Prints & Artworks for Sale
California-born artist Joshua Burbank is known for his auburn and copper-coloured paintings, which explore modern womanhood in unexpected contexts. His process combines collage with detailed painting: beginning with magazine cutouts, Burbank assembles a composition, mixing in acrylics, applying shellac, and then creating a rich and detailed oil painting over the top. Inspired by the Old Masters, religious icons, and Gustave Klimt’s female forms, Burbank’s style is eclectic and characterised by one, overwhelming quality: intense beauty. Dubbed “Game of Thrones meets Posh Vogue” his paintings place modern women in historical or otherworldly settings, in order to reframe traditional notions of the matriarch and reclaim the possibilities of the feminine muse for the twenty-first century woman.
