Our Rural Heritage
Internationally acclaimed landscape, wildlife and maritime artist James Williamson has created a new body of work with masterful paintings expressing feelings of history deeply rooted in our rural heritage.
The movement from rural to urban living has left much of our record of rural history abandoned, decaying destroyed by natural elements and all but forgotten. Mr. Williamson’s goal is to preserve landscapes, specific buildings and other structures, automobiles and machinery through nostalgic and even romantic representations of our collective past.
He has employed artistic license in some paintings that combine structures, machinery and landscape elements into one painting to achieve an aesthetic composition. He has created artwork that is all about our rural heritage. Many of his illustrations of important machinery such as tractors, vehicles and maritime themes of working vessels represent a dedicated attention to detail and faithful representation of the subject.
Mr. Williamson’s illustrations include a wide range of images. Paintings of rugged mountain peaks, lush forests, wild rivers, coastal and inland shores, the beauty of wildlife, historic tractors and machinery, historic and contemporary maritime subjects that illustrate tall ships, sail boats, tugboats, merchant vessels plus military themes.
Mr. Williamson’s artwork celebrates nature and human ingenuity of machines that have transformed life on Earth. His paintings are homage to our existence and interaction with nature.
Rural heritage reveals his goal to bring joy and inspiration through paintings of nostalgic, vintage tractors, trucks, windmills, barns and associated maritime subjects. He uses his brush to tell a story that strikes a chord of familiarity and inspires the viewer to learn more.

Beautiful. It tells a story.
James Williamson replied:
Thanks Warren I'm getting better at country scenes and will be producing more. I just uploaded a cropped version of this painting with focus on the 1952 Chevrolet Truck. Jim
