Our next opening First Friday June 6th 2008
"How to stop thinking?"
The perception of James Williams

"I depict my perceptions of people and the effects of the world on them – and on me – through images in pastel, oil pastel, pen and ink, or colored pencil, etc. In a sense, my works are mirrors, once removed."
"When I start a painting, I generally begin with the impression of a person, emotion or event, whether internal or external, remembered or actually present. In the process of evoking the nascent image and putting it down on paper, a metamorphosis from photographic reality to shapes dictated by my intuition occurs."
