Experienced tutor in Painting in Edgewater, James offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

I as looking for a luxe, minimalist showpiece to house and display tillandsias (airplants) in my contemporary organic living room. After querying me about the other finishes and furniture in the room, James instantly understood the vibe I was seeking, and patiently guided me through the decision making process of what kind of wood, live edge or not, what size, proportions, number of plants to include, hanging hardware, etc. Then he set to work to source the wood and create what is now the focal point of my living room: a very substantial wall hanging of the smoothest, most lustrous, almost glowing walnut that is the perfect backdrop and support for a rotating display of my favorite tillandsias. The finished product far exceeded my expectations and brings me joy each and every day. Thank you James!"

"Jim has done a number of wood projects for us. He has the precision of an engineer, paired with unique artistry and a very obvious passion for his work. We were particularly impressed by how well Jim listened to our needs and provided original, creative and perfect solutions to some challenges we were having in a cottage we were renovating. We very much look forward to commissioning him for future projects, and have recommended Jim wholeheartedly to friends looking for exquisite and unusual furniture and crafts."

"Jim was fantastic to work with from beginning to end, in designing and building a live-edge table for my office. From concept to the selection of wood to detailed execution, he worked with me closely to ensure my complete satisfaction. The result was so beautiful that I proceeded to a second project, having Jim create a "river" coffee table for my home. Both tables are gorgeous attention-grabbers, and show off Jim's flawless craftsmanship."
