Butterflies - James Stewart
For James the diversity of his subject matter is his style. Exploration is the key: “the only reason I want to do anything is to see what it looks like when it’s finished.”
James’s training and experience as an illustrator is telling in the trademark precision and detail of his draughtsmanship, His work has been on display at such prestigious UK exhibitions as the Royal Festival Hall, the London South Bank Exhibition, the Royal Academy Summer Show, the Benson and Hedges Gold Award and the BP National Portrait Award at the National Portrait Gallery.
James has recently finished writing and illustrating his first children’s book. “There’s a hole in my garden” To be published in September by US publishing house Albert Whitman.
