Art According to Sir James L. Thornhill
Being a native of historic Jackson Ward, in Virginia's Richmond,I was surrounded by creative people. I grew up observing them as unique forms of functional art. The ingenuity of the ice maker, the merchants,the 2nd Street Performers and my relatives inspired my style. I learned that art is a universal force of strength and energy. Without art, the community's vitality suffers. SJT Global Arts shares with you, my journey of expressions through the global neighborhood.

The Birth of SJT Global Arts
On the occasion of the November 5th First Friday's Artwalk Celebration, I launched SJT Global Arts, with my partner, Mulenga. The Artwalk is a special community feature in Richmond. It was a wonderful opportunity to introduce our business with a festive mix of music, food and fun.
At this Artshow, many guests toured through two reception halls featuring a collection entitled "Journey to the Motherland" and "Expressions in Jazz".
-Sir James L. Thornhill
A woman finds her true place where she is able to affirm herself, her family, and her village.
When her spirit’s excellence is lovingly fulfilled, from within,
The following theme "Expressions in Jazz" was inspired by Sir James' love of jazz music and all of its forms around the world:
“Billie”
Being who God created you to be feels like sweet music to the ear.
