About the Author

James Paterson is an artist and writer who has spent his life creating and implementing ideas originating deep within his heart and imagination. His wire creations, known as Prayer Machines and Engines of Joy emerge deep from within childhood experiences growing up in the culturally vibrant and visually textured Kensington Market neighborhood in Toronto, Canada. These whimsical wire machine-like objects evolved during a 3-year sojourn in Europe. They seek to bring joy and delight through their swirling shapes, vibrant colours and moving parts, while giving expression to the mystery. Large signature pieces have been commissioned for The Hospital for Sick Children (Toronto, Canada), The University Hospital Cleveland Medical Center (Cleveland, Ohio), the Lucille Packard Children's Hospital (Palo Alto, California) and Conrad Grebel University College (University of Waterloo, Waterloo, Canada). The book Saturday Morning is inspired by the Storytelling Machine, a large, colourful, interactive wire sculpture James created that tells the story of two brothers and their Saturday morning adventures. James and his wife, Lynn, currently reside in the beautiful Georgian Bay region of Ontario, Canada.
