James Bingham

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James (Jimmy) Bingham, born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in 1925, is an artist based in Belfast. He spent thirty years in London working as a signwriter with his brother. In 1967 he returned to Belfast where he met fellow Belfast artist Daniel O'Neill. They became friends and from 1968 he worked with O'Neill in his studio until O'Neill's death in 1974. Since then he has gone from strength to strength and now in his eighties, he still works ten hours a day in his studio refining his unique artistic genius into paintings full of joy, narrative sophistication and original colour palettes.^[1]
