Helping to raise his disabled brother, he saw first-hand hatred, prejudice, racism and how the people in authority oppressed those less fortunate. As a child, young James could not go outside to play because his parents were afraid of the violence, he also could not have friends over because they were ashamed of their living conditions. This early seclusion might have been a blessing in disguise as it forced him to use his artistic abilities. He made many of his own toys, drew and developed elaborate storylines and alternate universes. As a young teen he entered the street life. At seventeen he decided to leave this lifestyle, and enrolled into college and eventually became a teacher.
Now, many years later he returns to his first love, art and writing. In 2022 he launched his creative company ‘Zomchick Productions’, a name that he had promised his mother he would use when he was a child. Zomchick seeks to make a new innovation of creative works, one which gives hope to those that feel lost, forgotten, and powerless! He introduces characters that break through every ceiling of predigest, and tell us that we too have a voice. “‘Limits’ are adjusted by our vision, the greater the vision the farther you push the limits, until there are none left!” --
