SPECIAL WORKS
beyond the matte
JAMES MCARTHUR COLE
While photography encapsulates much of the eye and soul of James, there are a few pieces in the works that encompass so much more. From guest artist collaborations to multi-media pieces, take a step beyond the photograph and dive into some of these masterfully unique pieces.
"MIRADA"
The Cuban Ballerina is perched
Looking back at him.
Her eyes kind with a little mystery.
Her hypnotic gaze is steady
Direct.
To the infinite.
Her stance emits a certain strength, a certain grace.
Eyes wide open
A deep-seated awareness
A confidence
Becomes her.
Ready ...
They connect.
He engages the shutter.
It’s magic!

BEHIND THE SCENES
This amazing collaboration came together when James and Artist/Gallery Owner, Fidel Rodriguez, decided to take a new spin on a classic James' piece. The results are provocative, engaging and a true testament to each artists' style.
