Photography and paintings by Jim Stears

I do photography and create paintings. I’ve been doing them for 40+ years. I create color and black-and white images using digital cameras and classic film cameras. My paintings are oil and/or acrylic.

I rarely plan photos. I shoot whatever catches my eye, wherever I happen to be. However, I do plan paintings around ideas that pop into my head.

I strive to pull eyes into my creations, and to generate a reaction good or bad. Indifference is failure.
