Joseph Oisei Bonsu has always had a fascination with the visual arts. He is also the co-founder of Heroes of the World with his long-time friend, Mark Williams.

It was through his work on Heroes of the World that I first met Joseph at a Fan Expo Canada weekend a few years ago.

He has expanded on his work over the years, including illustration for children’s books and other works. Last year, Joseph illustrated the children’s book Race With Me with authors Andre DeGrasse (famous Canadian Olympic sprinter) and Robert Budd.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Joseph about his start as an artist, Heroes of the World, illustrating children’s books, and more great tidbits. It is clear that Joseph loves creating and sharing his art.

Next up for Joseph is showcasing his work at the RAW Canada Presents Artists Showcase in Toronto this weekend. Take a listen to our conversation and grab your tickets pronto!
