His work is very popular and is often commissioned by butter companies to create life size images relating to the countryside recreated into giant sculptures made of butter. He is also commissioned to make busts out of chocolates by some celebrities and popular people. Jim's primary products of use are butter, chocolate, vegetables and cheese,  which he has received many commission to do so. Jim's sculptures have been featured in Riply's Believe it or Not, The New York Daily News, and The Daily Record.

     Jim's primary choice of product is butter and chocolate so that fits our chosen theme for they are both edible products. He likes to sculpt with mesh as a start, and a metal bar to fix pieces in place, and then loads of butter compacted together and smoothed out by hands, a knife, and various tools of the trade.
