Joshua Hoffman captures the world with truth and beauty. 

A third-place winner at Plein Air Easton 2026 — the most prestigious juried plein air competition in the United States — Joshua has built a reputation as one of Western Pennsylvania’s most sought-after painters. Working both on location and in his Dormont studio, he finds beauty in the everyday: weathered buildings, sun-drenched streets, quiet fields, and fleeting moments of light that people walk by every day.

His paintings don’t just depict a place — they make you feel like you were there. Bold, confident brushwork and a masterful command of light, color, and atmosphere give each work an energy and immediacy that reproductions simply can’t capture.

Joshua’s work has been featured in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, The Strip, In Magazine, Print, and Mount Lebanon Magazine.

Original paintings are available at Concept Gallery in Pittsburgh, PA, Bridge Gallery in Shepherdstown, WV, his Dormont studio, and at JoshuaHoffmanArt.com.
