About James

Hi I am James, I am a "traditigital" artist based near Glasgow. I have drawn all my life and I currently do #draweverydays on my social media channels. You can also find me attending life drawing sessions in Glasgow a lot too. I have been drawing since childhood. I am a 3D "tradigital" artist and I advocate drawing as the core tool. I attended Edinburgh College Of Art and I graduated in 1999. I graduated in Interior Design (applied design) from Edinburgh College of Art in 1999 and since then I worked in the 3D graphics industry making visualisations for architects, engineers, and entertainment companies. I still do freelance work in these sectors today. As well as that I produce my own products and art, I have been featured in two two-page articles about me in the international 3D World magazine and I have had two short animated films featured in Channel 4 film festivals. Over the past few years, I have been working at FabLabs. I did art residencies in Fabrication Labs in Montreal, London and Iceland and recently finished a contract working at a FabLab in North Devon. This has made me an expert with 3D printing, Lasercutting and Vinyl Cutting. I advocate traditional drawing and I have been making a #draweveryday for the last few years on Instagram and Twitter. In my spare time, I love world travel, swimming and films.

About the lesson

Traditional drawing is the core of my work both with traditional and digital work. With these classes, I offer a first free 30 minute session to see your requirements whether you want to get more intuitive expressive work to get into Art college (I know how it feels I was there once!) or to loosen up your drawing skills for your work, self-employment or hobby aims. I will encourage you to do observational drawing, abstract drawing, urban sketching and more to help you unleash your expressive drawing skills. As a "tradigital designer" I can also get you using digital tools along with your traditional expressive drawing such as drawing in 3D space etc.

Perfect! James was incredibly helpful - I was trying to figure out a specific problem on Blender and he showed me how to solve it and how to optimise other processes around it.

James's response
Hi Jeena. Thanks for taking the session. Practice observational drawing, with tighter more detailed work combined with looser work to improve. Try to draw regularly at least 3 times a week and enjoy it too :) If you would like any more sessions with me, I am more than happy to help inspire you and help you improve your drawing skills. I do 30 minute and 60 minute sessions. Best regards, James.

James offers excellent teaching. When we started I could barely start a computer and now after a relatively short period of time I am working on massive Blender projects. I appreciate our easy communication and good tips that James gave to me.
