Biography
James Weed was born in Chicago in 1964. He grew up in Tucson, AZ., where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Painting from the University of Arizona. He studied under professors Chuck Hitner, Robert Colescott, and Alfred Quiroz.
James is a painter that applies and removes multiple layers of paint on stretched canvas until the painting reveals itself from within. His solo and group exhibitions include Seattle, Kirkland, And Bremerton WA., Portland, OR., Flagstaff, Phoenix, and Tucson, AZ.
For the past thirteen years James has maintained an art studio with his identical twin brother in the Tashiro Kaplan Artist building located in Seattle's historic "Pioneer Square" neighborhood.
