Jayeola Joshua

Jay Joshua is a Nigerian artist whose paintings draw from personal experiences, cultural heritage, and everyday life. Working primarily with expressive colour, texture, and layered detail, he uses red as a recurring element to symbolise strength, passion, and determination. His work often reflects themes of identity, faith, and resilience, translating emotion into bold visual form. Joshua approaches each piece with intention, sketching, researching, and refining as his ideas take shape on canvas. Through his art, he captures moments of struggle and hope, creating scenes that speak to growth, self-belief, and the courage to keep pushing forward.
