James Christensen Paintings

By Darren Hartley


James Christensen paintings are inspired by the world's myths, fables and tales of imagination. They add up to more than beautiful, sometimes curious looking, works of art. They look at the world as a classroom. This stems from the fact that James taught art professionally for over 20 years.

James Christensen paintings appeal to a broad range of collectors. They serve as an invitation to let the imagination run wild, explore and make spontaneous interpretations. James was born in Culver City, California, growing up two blocks from the MGM studios. With his friends, he often played in the studio back lot on sets for movies like Tarzan and Gone with the Wind.

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.

In the fantastic world of James Christensen paintings, False Magic is an inclusion. In this painting, fishes are portrayed as symbols of magic and wisdom. Their floating appearance in the air reminds people that everything is a possibility. Anything or anybody touched or surrounded by the fishes are considered truly blessed.

James Christensen paintings include Waiting for the Tide. In it is featured a man standing on the shore and demanding for the tide to come in. Instead of demanding, he decides to sit back, relax, smell the seaweed and enjoy life as it is. He figures it's nice being just out so he enjoys his time by sipping a cup of tea with shots of fortitude.

Dreams are part and parcel of James Christensen paintings. In Sleeper Lost in Dreams, wings are depicted as representative of a release of creative forces, giving out an ability to understand and transcend beyond the human condition. This particular artwork has the power to both provoke and inspire its viewers.
