Frosty Fog
After working as a commercial and graphic artist for many years, Jim now devotes his time to painting.  And he takes that time seriously.
With some 21 awards to his name, he is definitely an artist to watch.  His scenes from the American west, its land, people, and wildlife are portrayed with honesty and originality.  Jim looks to the outdoors for much of his inspiration, and his paintings capture the spirit of the land and its life, echoing reverence for the natural world in every painting.
Jim says “my ultimate goal is
to leave the viewer with a bit of the inspiration that I felt in the creation of each painting.  I am a painter interested in classical representational painting. Others may explore new frontiers in art, my objective is to hone the craft of painting, color, composition, texture, drawing, and technique, creating natural, rhythmic and harmonious works.  The natural world, the land and the life it supports, are my subjects.  Sometimes there's a story told, other times it’s a mood or effect.  I love the fact that my paintings give joy and inspiration to others.”
