“Joseph Bostany
lives in the world of continual possibility. He chases a vision till
it erupts into an identity that provides him with a platform made up
of endless questions. His rhythmic shapes dance with the blessings
of life.” – Frank O’ Cain, Art Students League

Statement
Painting for me is a hypnotic state that guides the colors and forms
that I eventually place on the canvas. My aim is to give pleasure to
the beholder.
