Early life

His father, an American, converted to Judaism three years prior to moving to Israel,{{citation needed|date=December 2011}} where he joined the Israeli army and met James' mother who emigrated from Bucharest.[2] James lived in both Israel and Egypt as a child, and spent much of his childhood without his father who left the family when James was four years old. Suffering from severe ADD, James explains that he was drawn into art and tattooing from a young age, as his father had tattoos and was also a painter.

James moved to the United States aged 11 or 12, living with his father's parents before moving to Miami at the age of 12. He moved back to Israel in his teens and completed his military service in the Israel Defense Forces as a sniper.
