James began his career over 20 years ago in Boston, where he met a group of illustrators who remain his pals today. Since those humble beginnings, lugging huge portfolios down Beacon and Boylston streets,James has done a variety of illustration assignments for clients in the editorial, corporate, and publishing markets. (Client list goes here). His work has often appeared in the Print Regional, CA, Society of Illustrators and American Illustration annuals.

Ten years ago, James had an overwhelming urge to pick up asaxophone. Since those humble beginnings, and after much frustration, he now plays regularly with a small jazz combo and a large ensemble. He lives in Amherst, Massachusetts with his family.
