I am passionate about stained and painted glass. It combines over a thousand years of tradition with infinite design possibilities. When fashioning a piece for a client I focus on producing something sympathetic to its surroundings. When the piece is wholly of my own design, I bring my own interpretation of mythical and spiritual subjects.

Drawing the human form is the foundation of most of the worlds artistic traditions. I combine a realist academic approach with a bit of poetic interpretation.
In January 2010 I founded James North Life Drawing. It has become Hamilton's longest running weekly life drawing session and a respected part of our city's artistic resurgence. I've been honoured with the support of dozens of incredible local artists who've helped make it an ongoing success.

For me, graphic art is an extension of illustration. I produce this work traditionally with paper, pencil, ink and paint. I think people respond more to work that isn't so mechanical.
