The Creative Adventures of James Brown: Part 12
Written by
In his last video blog in this series of The Creative Adventures of James Brown, James consolidates his ideas behind his paintings and selects final works to present to a gallery.

Auckland video editor James Brown works for The Learning Connexion School of Art and Creativity by day, and is a painter by night. A voracious blogger James decided to bring his two great loves together and create a video blog. His video blog followed his adventure from creative conception to through to exhibition. His work culminated in a giant painting of goat boy, a futuristic historian who populates James’ works. This work was entered in the 2009 Wallace Art awards.
James’ work is a complex melange of post-modern pop culture, which builds on traditions of collage. Essentially they are studies of James’ experience, reconstituted through a vision of a mythical future.
Thanks to everyone who has been following The Creative Adventures of James Brown, we look forward to having James back when his works appear on a wall somewhere!!!
