JAMES YAMASAKI creates conceptual, detailed and imaginative illustrations with energy and impact. From editorial, advertising, and publishing, to books for children, educational publishing, and products for kids, he brings a lighthearted offbeat touch--or the dark, spooky side of the world. He likes both, just to stay in balance! James also creates complex picture puzzles of crowds of characters and objects. Children's books include,"Boy Dumplings" by Ying Chang Compestine, Holiday House (2009); and "Christmas Chaos, Hidden Picture Puzzles", by Jill Kalz, Picture Window Books, (2012). James also teaches at the Academy of Art University in San Francisco. close
