I find Joshua Davis's designs to be very interesting because they are often very complicated and busy, which means that he uses a lot of attention to detail. These pieces typically have a high amount of contrast in the colors, usually incorporating bright colors like orange, red, and white with colors like brown, black, and purple. In particular, a large amount of oranges and reds are used, which appeals to me because those colors remind me of autumn. The first two pieces seen here are interesting because they look as if they should be symmetrical, although if you look closely they are not exactly perfect symmetry. This means that Davis puts a great amount of attention to the balance in his work but at the same time does not make both sides completely the same. The amount of variety Davis uses in his shapes make his pieces very active and almost frenzied, because there is so much detail in them. The last piece of artwork has a great contrast in the white and brown on either side and then the colors only being used in the middle. The shape of it also reminds me of a human heart.
