NB This is not a copy of an original, each print is individually created from a base plate. The technique of collography can be best explained as collaging materials to a flat surface that then responds to offset inks on the plate when polished back. These impressions are then transferred to acid resistant Stone-Henge printmaking paper. All of my items are very limited editions as the plate does deteriorate with use over time. Each item is dated and signed and are of gallery quality.About the artist...Hailing originally from Perth, Jet James has become a recognisable figure in the arts industry. His birth to an artist father and model mother, who had close links to the likes of Jimi Hendrix, Eric Burdon and Michael Hutchence, seem like fitting beginnings for Jet’s career in the spotlight. Tragically, Jet lost both his parents in separate accidents at a very young age. The time that ensued led to periods of isolation in some of the most remote areas of Australia where he studied via the School of the Air. These times of solitude saw him throwing himself into his art and honing his skills through the mass of work he produced, while also allowing his own style to develop with the lack of outside influence. By the age of 16, Jet was left to complete his secondary schooling on his own. He worked and even managed to sell some paintings while putting himself through high school, even though at times he was, by definition, homeless. After completing year 12, Jet travelled to sunny Central Queensland and commenced study in Visual Art. He has won awards and exhibited regularly and sold work directly and internationally via online marketing. Jet lives and breathes art in an almost literal sense and his work reflects his traditional beliefs as well as his modern thinking.  These contrasts of thinking are seen in his work by his use a variety of mediums and application methods. His current, preferred domain is that of printmaking, which may be better suited to satisfy his preference for the avant-garde creative process. “There is something more within me, within each of us, I intend to find out what it is, or at least try. ” Jet James Exhibitions 2003- Young originals- Perth Western Australia.2005- "Fruit bowls" Litmus gallery- college exhibition2005- "Series and Sequences" Litmus gallery- college exhibition2006- Guest artist, "The gallery" Emu Park.2006- "Heads and Tails"  Litmus gallery.2006- "Emergent Artist Exhibition" Mill gallery2007- " Jet James" solo exhibition,  The beach house.2008- "Bent Over Backwards", mARTas Modern Art Gallery, Townsville, QLD Competitions Winnings 1999- Queensland Short storiees- 2nd in state. 1999-  "Queensland Book Week"- State winner.1999-  "Jim Wilson Memorial award- Life skills"2002- Young Originals " state finalist .2005-  "Comalco Martin Hanson Memorial", Emergent artist award2006-  "Arts on Show Awards" Mackay, Emergent artist award2008- "Yeppoon Rotary art show" Emergent artist award.2008- " Yeppoon Rotary art show" Commended.           2008- " Mackay Art on Show Awards" Emergent artist award.FEEDBACKAmazing artist!
