James Hubbell – Legacy at St. James

“His art was based on a philosophy of seeking inspiration in nature. Materials often included natural and found objects from his property or nearby sources. His work championed the forces in life that shape us: the good and the bad, the irregular and imperfect, and the joy and pathos of life.”

James Hubbell, the talented artist whose impact we see every time we enter our church, passed away this past spring at the age of 92. He created much of the artwork at the entrance of St. James, including the natural pieces around the font and the ambry.
