About me

James is a Commercial illustrator/Image Maker, working predominantly in mixed media collage, digital manipulation and 3D experimentation. His work is ever unexpected, often abstract, dramatic, “glitchy”, and reflective of his alternate eclectic energy. This Postmodern approach encourages constant exploration and a desire to approach each new project with fresh imagination.
