James millwards initial introduction to art was as a teenager when he Had the privilege being taught how to paint watercolour landscapes by Cumbrian artist Monte Christopherson in sedbergh on the outskirts of the lake district. James has continued to paint on and off ever since, however some years ago he was drawn towards expressing himself through sculpture. His continued fascination with Sculpting has revealed some incredible and unique pieces of wood art.

Each sculpture, individual in its own right in so far as to say each work often represents a singular subject matter rather than a mass of work studying just one idea and once a work is finished a line is normally drawn under that study and the next idea moves into focus, his inspiration is as random and erratic as nature itself and the variety of concepts behind his work reflects this quality. subject matter is heavily influenced by scientific concepts and revelations, microscopic biological forms and textures, modern technology and aspirations, human and animal form and the study of the constant forces of nature in a bid to celebrate the freedom of form within our World.

The artist's intentions are to reveal and release the emotion and mystery of the invisible as well as the visible  Using the medium of wood with a reductive process of carving and sanding to draw out beautiful and unique contemporary sculpture.
