AI = Art Imposter

Art is a deeply human expression of creativity, intention, and emotion. It is a reflection of our experiences, perspectives, and the struggles we face in the world.

It has finally happened. Josh Pears finally has a store! After a lot of planning, research, and development, I figured out a way to sell my prints globally with FREE SHIPPING. The checkout is safe and secure using stripe. You can use your preferred credit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Klarna. Klarna allows you to make payments on your purchases, with no interest.
