Inside every problem, lies opportunity
The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity/ The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty

James Sanders: London based artist
Over the past decade or so, I’ve been working on my drawing and painting. My work tends towards contemporary hyper-realism and appears in several London-based galleries. Demand for my art appears to be increasing, which is extremely rewarding.
