James was fantastic for this graffiti art project with a group of young people. He was great at explaining the techniques, facilitating the workshop and engaging with the young people. I'd highly recommend him.

About
Driven by the constant pursuit of perfection in his craft, Smalls has established a reputation as one of the countries most dedicated and dynamic artists. A self-taught artist with over 13 years of professional aerosol experience, his bold, large-scale works and relentless artistic commitment have seen him travel the country transforming spaces with uncompromised passion and precision. Although always loyal to the spray can, his versatile use of mediums and styles has earnt him work with a range of high profile clients such as Westfield Australia, the Tuggeranong Arts Centre, GTM music festival, Spilt Milk Music festival, Canberra CBR tourism, MasterBuilders Australia, ACT government along multiple solo and joint exhibitions and his work displayed as the centre piece of the Headspace exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery. Forever a dreamer and a constant creator, Smalls is producing art with consistent progression and technical skill to paint a permanent place for himself in the street art scene.

I can replicate designs if it suits my style

Pick me for these projects! :-

I enjoy bringing walls to life with colour and vibrancy, including themes of nature, native flora and fauna, portraits, graffiti and lettering.
