Featured Artist James Heimer

James Heimer is originally from Lansdale and now lives in Philadelphia.

He is a vegetarian who sometimes draws and always screenprints.
He loves money and hates nature. 
He earned his BFA in illustration at Uarts .

He pays his rent by drawing and screenprinting.

He’s a terrible biographer.
Click any of the images above to get to Jame's Etsy Store to buy his prints. I had to investigate his hate towards nature and his reasons are due to being forced into birdwatching vacations as a child. James creates graphics for t-shirts, albums and posters. It will be exciting to see what he comes up with for the fun a day projects.  You can see more of his work at any of the links above and you should LIKE James Heimer Illustration on Facebook.
