I was thrilled to be interviewed by Bruce Mckenzie, for TV's Border Life on ITV.
How I became a sculptor and about my career in the art world.
It was great to have Bruce and Cameraman, James, of Shoot Scotland visit the workshop and see just how the professionals do it.
I hope you enjoy the interview.

I think the real takeaway is how humble James is. Those, like him, with real talent don't need affectations. He remains true to himself.

Hi James, this is the first time I have seen your bronze sculptures and they are sublime. I love the pinecones there’s something very special about their form and I don’t think you’d ever tire from looking at them. Thank you for sharing your journey with us, it still blows my mind that you never had any formal training.

Oh my God! James! You look so much like your brother! I learned about you through your hilarious hoof trimming brother and his family group in their entertaining and educational videos. I am very excited to share you with all my family of artists.

Wonderful video James. I love watching you do your work and how you bring your creation to completion. Incredible intricate work. Very interesting to hear how your journey started and what challenged and influenced you and how it’s evolved along the way and you continue to challenge yourself. Oh I love those dry stone walls, favourite part for me in scenes of Scotland. Lol. Thank you for sharing James. ❤❤

Continue to enjoy your films from Canada 🇨🇦. James, how do you adhere the slates to each other?

Thanks Millie. I use lots of different methods and sometimes they are dry. It depends on the commission.

Hey James... Should you have a chance to respond, I'm curious...Do you work alone or have a support crew helping you with the number of installations you must do annually? I've never seen you advertise for support masons or related craftspeople...

@jamesparkersculpture 7 ай бұрын

Hi. I work alone the vast majority of the time. An unusual project like the Doocot (also on this channel) required some help. I have some help setting up for Chelsea too. From day to day in the workshop, I just work myself.
