James’s favourite subjects

Birds and flowers, drawn from nature

Birds and botanicals run through all of James’s work, from his swallows illustration to tattoos of blue tits, magpies, owls and peonies.

Each design is drawn to sit naturally on the body, with flowing stems and wings that follow the shape of an arm, leg or shoulder.

Choose a bird or flower that means something to you: a birth flower, a garden favourite, a bird you associate with someone. James will build the design around it.
