James Hicks Here's James in his own words...Authentic Art's Artist for September: Where are you originally from and how long have you been an artist? was born in Annapolis Md. and raised in Washington D.C. I have been an artist for about 30 years. What inspires you in creating your art? Life. What medium do you use for your artwork? If you use a specialized medium, describe the process.
I have used 35mm and medium format camera for
years. I am not shooting digital. I have been
experimenting printing images on different surfaces
such as canvas and rag paper. I have been very happy
with the results. Image: Badu Green, 32 X 36 or 16 x 24 Giclee on Canvas and 16 x 24 Giclee on textured rag paper, by James Hicks
