"I try to portray the world around me in a fresh and original way. I seek to create exciting
and unique visual statements that express my feelings of a scene. Through the use of
established principles of painting, ie, composition, drawing, color, and texture,
I try to make my own personal statements on the world that I see. My ultimate goal is to leave the viewer with a bit of the inspiration that I felt in the creation of the painting."

western US. Jim's early childhood drawings and a fascination for the outdoors
eventually grew into today's award-winning paintings.
