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.

The early whimsical 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.

The universal predicaments of the fantastic characters in James Christensen paintings touched a chord in the lives of other people and bring a wry smile of recognition from them. People found themselves relating to one of James' overdressed, self important little characters in his Poofy Guy in a Short Leash painting.

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.

One of the James Christensen paintings comes with a free booklet explaining all of 72 superstitions. Entitled Superstitions, it divulges that life is a precarious business, so much so that ancient forebears became keen to stack the cosmic deck. What hurt can wishing upon a falling star, bewaring of the black cat or picking up a lucky penny bring?
