About Austin Allen JamesAustin A. James was born in Putnam, CT. He lived the first six years of his life in Bennington, VT before moving to Houston, TX in 1973. Austin has lived most of his life since 1973 in Houston, TX.
Austin began his art career in 1994 as a poet. His love for playing with words and phrases and his love for color naturally led him to experimenting with paint and motion. He started painting in 1996 and exhibiting as a professional artist in 1997. Austin believes that art is energy. Each human being has his or her own unique form of energy. An artist is capable of translating this energy into art. Austin’s pieces focus on organic shapes, color, the natural flow of matter and motion. His MFA from Naropa University in Poetry has infused a lyrical sensibility into Austin’s work.
Austin lives in Houston, Texas with his children Granger and Baylies. SIVA is his first full-length collection of art images.
Austin’s formal education includes a BA from Southwestern University in Georgetown, TX, an MBA from the University of Dallas and his art education is a Master of Fine Arts from Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado as well as 45 hours Post Bachelorette at the University of Houston in literature, poetry and French to prepare Austin for his MFA.
