Jim brings a unique and varied blend of skills and experience to The Post Arm. He worked as a colour assistant at The Mill in the late 2000s, where he worked alongside some of the world's best colourists in the most successful colour team of its era. His need for an artistic outlet originally drew Jim to the craft of Colour, and he absorbed so much working in this team of highly regarded Colour specialists and this now gives Jim a deep knowledge of this craft to take advantage of.
Jim also draws from a further eclectic mix of influences and inspirations. As a professional musician, he has toured internationally playing to five-figure audiences, performing at Glastonbury and many other major festivals around the world. He is also a talented artist. He specialised in graphic design academically and now finds an outlet through public murals and street typography.
All of this informs Jim’s open-minded approach to his work. He draws parallels between performing a gig and working a room full of clients, or the colour composition of a graffiti piece and a fashion commercial. It’s all connected creativity and allows Jim to turn his hand confidently to any brief. This is reflected in his stylistically varied work.
