Digital Paintings

Welcome to a world where pixels replace paint to create the soulful narratives of individuals. (Fuck AI Art)

Oil Paintings

In James' paintings there is a perfected dance between realism and abstraction, a textured indulgence with brush and pigment, that draws the viewer in, often getting lost in hours of brush work and color variety, only to be brought back to the depth of his subjects following eyes

En Plein Air

Through my work, I aim to share not only the visual splendor but also the emotional resonance of these landscapes. Inspired by the tradition of plein air painting, I find myself drawn to the untamed beauty of British Columbia. (I go outside and touch grass on occasion 🫳🥦)

I love to paint

Whether the subject steams from his own imagination or reality, James spends time observing their physical features, gestures, and expressions, carefully noting every-detail and nuance. Using oil paints, James aims to bring his observations to life on canvas, layering color, texture, and brushwork to create a dynamic and engaging portrait.
