James Christensen Paintings

By Darren Hartley


James Christensen paintings create a rich and strangely familiar world rendered with exquisite skill and detail. This creation was made possible by James' application of his eye for the fantastic to people, landscapes and creatures, both real and imagined. James' aim has always begun with a desire to connect one imagination with another.

The early James Christensen paintings displayed fantasy images that James thought other people will like. To his amazement, he discovered that people liked his imaginative, magical worlds as much as he did. After completing his studies, James worked as a freelance illustrator, continually working on his own painting on his free time.

James Christensen paintings are enchanting works of art, woven from dreams, hopes, fears and humor, into a fabric of everyday life. They are meant to excite the imagination and invite the viewer to become an active participant in the creative process instead of just being a bystander.

James Christensen paintings convey either a message, an inspiration or a simple laugh. James has always believed that teaching people to use their imagination helps in finding solutions to soothe the myriad stresses of everyday life.

Your Place or Mine, one among the many James Christensen paintings, picture a fellow who has been fishing for a good line for quite a long time. He has finally found one and is determined to make use of it. He is definitely not an average medieval of the road lover.

There are James Christensen paintings that are love stories. A prime example of this is Twilight. It is rich in symbols representative of the close of a chapter, the twilight hour of the day, the final phase of the moon, the turning leaves on an autumn tree and the checkerboard road coming to an end. One symbolism from the painting could be interpreted as love coming in many different levels but one that is everlasting has the most important power of all.
