About Me
Hi, I’m James Masters, a watercolor artist based in Kansas City. I didn’t always like working in watercolor. It can be unforgiving once it hits the page, there’s no easy way back. Over time, that’s exactly what drew me in. Now it’s my primary medium.
For high-quality prints, visit my Etsy shop. Originals, limited edition matted prints, magnets, and more are available at local Kansas City events and galleries. Follow me on social media for updates.
