Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: I've always had a vision with a certain balance of composition and a poetic life in my line design. I've never liked stale one thickness line, I love the breathing aesthetic of thick and thin line that I can create with instinctual control of more or less pressure with a brush pen. I've been intrigued with and have bern drawing Caricatures almost daily since I can remember. I have many influences and besides being classically trained in art, I have my own unique style and not a 10 step taught theme park type style that seems to be everywhere. I'm a huge fan of the science and dynamics of color theory and strive to bring a fun dynamic image when commissioned for color illustrations by using a well thought design of hue, saturation, value, balance, harmony, line flow, composition, and story. As a public entertainer at events and parties I take great pride in being a positive energy in both myself and my art. I am beyond grateful to be alive and equally grateful to get to make a living with my passion.

Working with James is an absolute pleasure! Everyone at our party loved him!!! He was extremely professional, great with kids and adults alike and SO talented! We had originally planned for him to draw 3 hours, but we ended up having him draw an extra 2 because he was such a hit with everyone. Having him at our event was one of the best decisions we made. I would highly recommend hiring James as an artist and we look forward to having him at our future events! Thank you, James!!! :)
