James C. Gilmore

Painting :: Booth TBA

Process

My work blends bold acrylic paintings and intricate pen-and-ink illustrations. I paint intuitively, building layers of color and energy, while my detailed ink pieces follow a slow, precise process using thousands of hand-drawn marks to create depth and form.

Inspiration

I’m inspired by pop culture, film, and comic art, as well as the balance between bold expression and fine detail. I’m drawn to iconic imagery, storytelling, and the challenge of translating energy, emotion, and texture into both vibrant paintings and intricate pen-and-ink work.

Fun Facts

Fun fact: my detailed pen-and-ink pieces are built from thousands of tiny hand-drawn circles, no lines, no shortcuts, just pure patience and precision to create depth, texture, and form.
