Gordon James, Printmaker

Gordon James received his diploma from the Alberta College of Art in 1976. Since then he and his wife, Martha, have operated James Pottery at their studio overlooking Georgia Strait on Quadra Island. Gordon has exhibited his functional and sculptural ceramics, paintings and prints locally, nationally and internationally. "In addition to my career as a potter over the past 42+ years, I have maintained an art practice that involves printmaking and painting. My prints are done using various techniques including etching, drypoint, collagraph, monoprint, and silkscreen. My subject matter is focused on abstraction and the human figure."
