James Prosek 

is an artist, writer, and naturalist whose work pays homage to the history of natural science while simultaneously addressing contemporary environmental concerns. His diverse body of work is the result of extensive travel and field observation. From these explorations, Prosek creates paintings, drawings, and sculptures that evoke the immense biodiversity of our planet and its imaginative potential.

He has been called “the Audubon of the fishing world” by The New York Times, and “the best artist of this era” by the literary critic Harold Bloom.  Prosek has traveled the globe in pursuit of his subject matter, has published over a dozen books and exhibited his art globally from the Yale University Art Gallery and the Philadelphia Museum to the Asia Society Hong Kong Center, the National Gallery of Art in London and Nouveau Musée National de Monaco.
