Welcome to Beauty through Faith a podcast of the Kalos Arts Foundation. On today’s episode, Gustav Hoyer and I had the privilege of speaking with the fine-artist, Josh Tiessen. Josh was born in 1995 in Moscow, Russia to Canadian parents. He is an international award-winning contemporary artist based near Toronto, Ontario. Tiessen is best known for his hyper-surreal shaped oil paintings, which take up to 1700 hours to complete, and reflect the interaction between the natural world and human-made structures. Please visit his website for more information and of course his artwork: https://www.joshtiessen.com/
