"You can compare Canadian artist James Huctwith to
artists from Rembrandt to gay art star Attila Richard Lukacs, but Huctwith
brings his own dark melody to his portraits, tableaux, and still lifes. The
mainstream art world may view his work as highly sexualized. His authority with the subject matter suggests
he is creating from his experience rather than as a shock tactic. Even though
his dramatic canvases stage scenes of hallucinatory, murky sexual goings-on. If
you happen to check out his website, blog, or Facebook page you will also see
that Huctwith is quite great to look at himself, with rust-colored Byronic
charms. So if you can't become a collector, you can always become a fan."
