“Joseph has worked for me on a number of architectural projects. He was careful and precise in his work... I never felt I had to correct him... and I knew he would always ask me if he didn’t know something.... This was a boon to me as this allowed me to simply delegate the work to him, and thus free me up to do mine...””

“In dealing with him I knew of his honesty and straightforwardness, so I was always comforted knowing that I was going to be properly informed of the progress of the projects. This was critical for my own work, such as in one project that involved AutoCAD needed for some life-and-death rescue work. I always felt Joseph is someone who can be thoroughly trusted and relied upon.”- Meyer Hyman, Businessman; Former owner of Paragon Fine Linen

Joseph’s freelance work also included giclée renderings; architectural presentation images were created and printed on a thick matte paper. The printouts were artistically hand-finished with colored pencils to soften the cold blockiness of the computer modelling and remove the pastiche feeling of collaged Photoshop images.
Joseph’s academic training in color theory combined with his experience in the craft allowed the images to reach their attained level of art.

“...he exceeded my expecta ons of the ability of a person to take what I said, and turn it into a visual reality.
I was always pleasantly surprised by Joseph’s ability to not only visualize what I wanted graphically, but also to clearly and elegantly ar culate in wri en words any message I needed to convey in my company’s marke ng material.
From Napkin Idea to Pure Art is the only way I can describe Joseph. And as a big plus he’s a great guy and fun to work with! I rarely put my name on a reference, but I would be proud to tell of the accomplishments that Mr. Browns was able to achieve on our behalf.”
