     James McPhillips' work is quite varied. He enjoys many forms of media. His projects include oil paintings in an impressionist style to screen printed posters and t-shirts. McPhillips graduated from the University of Delaware with a B.S. in Visual Communication. He then took the leap and accepted a job with a large ad agency in New York City. He promoted everything from chewing gum to The Guggenheim Museum.

After three years in New York, James moved to Portland, Maine to study painting at the Maine College of Art and freelance as a graphic designer. He then relocated to Portland, Oregon for ad agency work and painted in his free time. He returned to the Mid-Atlantic region, where he took a job as an advertising creative for the cable television network, Comedy Central in New York. After 5 years working as Princeton's McCarter Theatre graphic designer, James left to pursue more painting and freelance design work from his current home in Doylestown, Bucks County, PA.

Though his design work can be fulfilling, painting offers James a creative outlet not often found in the office world. Commercially, James' work has been on billboards in Time Square, NY bus sides, NY bus shelters; magazines: Rolling Stone, Variety, The New Yorker, The New York Times, Details, Timeout, and many more.

In addition, James has written, illustrated and self-published three books (Cooler Than TV and Now Firing) and has just completed his latest book Staff Pick (a splendid collection of over 200 humorous doodles and notions!).
