James Mason
I am a self-taught artist. In my work, I try to deal with interesting subjects in an interesting way. I began creating art when I was very young, but didn’t continue with it until later in life. My main interest at that time was literature.
Inspiration for my work comes from everywhere. I observe things and have experiences that I try to sum up in a painting – mostly acrylic. Above all, I am inspired by art history and seeing things in a different way. I hope I make my images different, challenging, and interesting.
I grew up here and there around the valleys of Wales. I lived for the most part in the country, where I drew and painted – inspired by the renaissance artists and modernist’s such as Picasso and Modigliani. My work is probably a mixture of this. I hope to please and intrigue the viewer.
