“I’m a human person based in Porirua, New Zealand with my partner, son, and some animals. Exactly two animals. In between work and family and sometimes sleep, I draw very silly things and do my best to remember to also put them somewhere on the internet, so people can read them. I’m most known for drawing the comic Moonbeard (pictured).”
James also shared what drew him to the world of cartooning.
We wanted to know how James himself would describe the essence or theme behind the cartoons of “Squireses.” He wrote: “My comics are sometimes bleak, sometimes surreal, spooky, whimsical, absurd, silly. Sometimes very silly. Sometimes they have punchlines, but often they don’t. Sometimes they’re funny, but often they’re not. I’m a big film nerd so I’ll draw influence from film a lot, mainly science fiction or horror. They’re a bit all over the place so it’s tricky to really pin down specific recurring themes but if I had to try, then I would.”
The creative process varies from artist to artist. Therefore, we asked James to share an inside look at his artistic method for “Squireses”.
In terms of the audience’s expectations, this is what James had to say about the desired takeaway.“I’m just grateful I have any kind of audience so honestly: anything. I’m not picky. I just throw them out into the world and if someone takes something away or is still thinking about a comic later, then that’s just dandy.”And lastly, James added: “Thanks for reading. I love you. I miss you. Call me.”
