James Campbell

James Campbell is a father of three. His inspiration for storytelling and painting comes from his love for the beautiful land we live in, rural Australia.

James’ passion and attention to detail extends from his trade as a mechanic. With a love for family and passion for farming, he writes expressive, poetic literature and brings Dusty Boot Books to life with original watercolour paintings.

“Nothing is more valuable than the memories that we create with our children.

We all remember those cherished moments of running to the bookshelf, picking out our favourite picture book, then snuggling up to our loved ones for storytime.

We learnt to read, and creativity started to flow in our young minds, as we gazed upon the beautiful hand-painted classics.”

– James Campbell
