Does is a contemporary street artist painter and sculptor from the Netherlands. Does was born in the Veghel, the Netherlands in the early 1980’s. Does grew up in Sittard, a city in the southern part of the Netherlands.
The artist’s government name is Joos Van Barneveld.
Price range information: Sorry none available.
Below we view the artist in action! He uses a great deal of texture that he gets by using knives and trowels to apply texture:
Does got tired of getting repetitive injuries and decided to retire from playing soccer. During his time as a player he enjoyed creating art as it allowed him to escape from the pressures of being a professional athlete. Soccer was his daytime job ,and creating art was his nighttime job.
The artist still enjoys being part of a team and works with the LoveLetters crew.
In this clip Does creates a large mural in a warehouse:
Does’ favorite subject matter is letters. The artist has been working on creating sculptures based on letter forms.
Joos Van Barneveld is an awesome painter and inspirational figure! How many people have dreamed of becoming a professional athlete, or earning enough money from painting to live on. Does has achieved both dreams!
My favorite thing about this artist is his innovative thinking and ideas. Whether taking letter form to sculpture, or working on developing interesting abstract shapes the artist is always looking forward to a new creative challenges.
