Inspired by the worlds myths, fables and tales
of imagination, James C. Christensens work adds
up to more than a beautiful - if sometimes
curious looking work of art. Having taught art
professionally for over 20 years, he thought of
the world as his classroom. His hope is that
through whatever he creates -- be it a porcelain,
fine art print or book -- he can convey a
message, inspiration or a simple laugh. He
believes that teaching people to use their
imagination helps us find solutions to sooth the
stresses of everyday life-or get a little lift to
help us keep going.
In short all things are possible when you share
Christensens philosophy that Believing is
Seeing. Christensen was born in 1942 and raised
in Culver City, California. He studied painting
at Brigham Young University and, for a while, the
University of California at Los Angeles before
finishing his formal education at BYU. Since
then, he has had one-man shows in the West and
the Northeast and his work is prized in
collections throughout the U.S. and Europe.
Christensen has also won all the professional art
honors the World Science Fiction and Fantasy
Convention can bestow, as well as multiple
Chesley Awards from the Association of Science
Fiction and Fantasy Artists. Christensen has been
designated as a Utah Art Treasure, one of
Utahs Top 100 Artists by the Springville Museum
of Art and received the Governors Award for Art
awarded by the Utah Arts Council recognizing the
significance of Christensens artwork to Utahs
cultural communities.
