« Making a painting or a print is like composing music, it's an arrangement of shapes, lines, and colors that evokes a nonverbal reaction in the viewer. »
James A. Hamilton III is an award-winning American artist whose works have been exhibited in the United States. He declines conceptual art, stating that he is a painter, not a philosopher or propagandist. Instead, Hamilton's artistic practice is informed by the arrangement of shapes, as suggested in nature or his immediate physical environment, in the most instinctively pleasing manner he can. His process begins with line drawing in pencil or ink and is finished with oils and pastels.
