I came across this artist's site a couple years ago. James is a phenominal artist, but his sketchbooks blow me away. His draftsmanship is incredible and the compositions truly beautiful. My favorite is his Vienna book.

I had the chance to browse through his sketchbooks in flesh at the comiccon a few years ago. Such great objects, full of life. His travel books have been definitly inspirational for me too. If you have the chance to go to that exposition, do it.

Wow, didn't know he'd have his work up at Super 7. I'll need to go check it out! Any idea when it will be up?

And thanks for introducing me to Tadahiro Uesugi's work. There's a feeling of grace in all of his pieces. Very beautiful.

The opening is on April 8th I believe ... I think it's the weekend of the Alternative Press Expo as well ...

Glad you like Tadahiro ... hard not to eh ?

The Process Recess book is really awesome. I briefly chatted this weekend with James at Ape and at a gallery opening ... his books was sold out pretty soon at the con ... I highly recommend it ...
Love the travelling sketches in it ...
