Client Testimonials

"It gives me great pleasure to recommend James Hall. He is a delightful artist who relates so well to the client, as well as the subject of the sculpture. I believe that it is one thing to produce a "likeness", but another to truly capture the spirit of the subject of the sculpture. James has the ability to craft a sculpture that truly comes to life."

"James Hall is a first-class person and an outstanding sculptor, designer, and project manager. I had the chance to work with him on behalf of a board on which I serve. It was a mother and child piece for a health care provider. It received rave reviews and was delivered and installed just as was promised. If you’re thinking of adding a sculpture to your site, you should absolutely be in touch with James. You will be pleased you did."

"James Hall's subjects exhibit great balance, form, and tone, with significant expression throughout the work. His bronze pieces representing the branches of our military services is composition at its finest. In the past, I have worked with famed sculptors Dr Felix de Weldon, Lincoln Borglum, and Jim Brothers. James fits the criteria for the definition of the word, "sculptor" while clarity, conciseness, formality, and inclusiveness define his work.

James Algernon Johnson, GCM, Defense Intel Alumni Association, US Marine Corps Memorial Committee, National D Day Memorial Committee.

Mr. Hall did an outstanding job on our statues. His attention to detail and historical accuracy are noted by visitors to our campus, as they remember America’s conflicts and the reasons for them. These visitors include veterans and gold star families who now have a place set aside for them to reflect. Mr. Hall’s ability to communicate and collaborate helped provide a successful outcome for each of our sculptures. These projects were delivered on time and on budget. His artwork has made our Patriots Park a special place of honor for our military and their families. We would recommend Mr. Hall for any sculpture project that you are considering. “

"I have had the pleasure to work directly with James Hall, both in a supervisory capacity during his tenure at Chase Studio, Inc of Cedarcreek, MO, and as a peer and advisor in the field of commercial sculpture. James brings a unique view of his work. While his technical sculpture is well researched and accurate, there is always a personal touch, which gives each piece a signature character and the lifelike realism sorely missing in many sculptors work. His whimsical pieces are full of soul and always bring a smile to the viewer. Whatever the task, James has proven himself to be conscientious, competent and consistent. His work ethic and time commitment to customer satisfaction are exemplary, and I would recommend James for any project, large or small."
