James’ Nature paintings reflect his belief that everything on Planet Earth is alive with spirit. “What I see in Nature is a magnificent structure that we can comprehend only very imperfectly, and that must fill a thinking person with a feeling of humility. Look deeper into Nature and you will understand everything better”. –Albert Einstein
