Where to Begin

from $199.00

A humid Shelter Island night where the dark feels thicker, closer, tender. Light clings to his skin as fireflies drift in soft golden arcs, clearing small paths through the heat. Long exposures brush the edges of his chest, his throat, the line of his jaw. This is the hour when the body becomes the only honest narrator.

Bring him home. This piece carries an intimacy that reveals itself slowly—like eyes adjusting to the dark or breath settling into its rhythm.

(Note: the actual print is shown uncensored.)

James produces each artwork with meticulous attention to material integrity and longevity. Prints are made on Hahnemühle Fine Art Pearl, a 100% alpha-cellulose paper selected for its exceptional tonal preservation and surface quality. All works are presented in archival gallery frames, fully mounted and ready to hang. White borders are edition-specific—1 inch for Starter, 2 inches for Standard, and 3 inches for Statement and Collector editions—to ensure balanced and intentional presentation. Each piece includes a hand-signed authenticity card and registered edition number, affirming its provenance. Framed works are professionally dry-mounted to maintain a perfectly flat surface, eliminating any distortion and preserving the artwork’s visual precision.

Note: all sizes listed are the framed dimensions. While production is carefully standardized, please allow for minor variances in size depending on which region the artwork is produced.
