He entered his first art show at the age of 15, and also at that time he started custom painting using an airbrush and custom paints and metalflakes on motorcycles, painting fantasy art on Harley and Triumph choppers in the late 1960's. By the age of 17 he started doing more in the design work in sculpturing the look of motorcycles by designing and building his own front ends, gas tanks, sissy bars and modifying frames by goose necking the front on the frame for more style in the appearance, like now being shown on television programs like American Choppers and other custom motorcycle builders.

      Joseph continued his experience working with metals when he was employed by a company for 22 years that built expansion joints; in fact, it is the world's leader in this field. They manufactured units to be applied in oil refineries and utility plants; some of these devices performed as anti-pollution devices to help clean up our earth's atmosphere for a cleaner, healthier planet. He spent 22 years there, welding, bending, rolling, and cutting various types of steel, some years cutting up to approximately one millon dollars worth of these metals, rolling steel up to 4" thick and cutting steel up to 10" thick, so he is fully qualified in knowing the differences in the various types of metals.
