James Christensen 'Men and Angels'
James Christensen 'Men and Angels'
Man, indeed, describes more than he explains; while the angelic spirit sees and understands. Man judges nature in relation to itself; the angelic spirit judges it in relation to heaven. In short, to the spirits everything speaks. -HONORÉ DE BALZAC
Artist James C. Christensen's portrayals of angels, including Cecelia, Sleeper Lost in Dreams and throughout his Saints and Angels series, inspire us to reflect on the angels among us.The high contrast in Men and Angels reminds the viewer that sometimes our mortal world is dark compared to the world of angels.The image also reveals how a visitor can bring a shining light, leading us out of the darkness.

James Christensen 'Saint with White Sleeves'
James Christensen 'Saint with White Sleeves'
Behold the latest discovery from James C. Christensen's Saints and Angels collection, a series he attributes to his alter-ego, an obscure Flemish painter known as The Master of the Enoch Altarpiece. Fine Art Limited Editions from the Saints and Angels collection include Isabella and The Enoch Altarpiece.
The subject of Saint with White Sleeves does not appear to be a specific saint, and the model for this striking portrait was likely one of the Master's patrons. It was customary at the time for the wealthy to request that their portraits incorporate characteristics of saints or angels. In Saint with White Sleeves, the halo suggests a saint, yet the white sleeves hint at angel's wings.

James Christensen ' The Listener'
James Christensen ' The Listener'
There are two types of people-those who wait to talk and those who listen. -Anonymous
In the Dolby® surround sound of our daily lives, we all have to find our own mute button. "Since a painting has no soundtrack, the title character at the center of The Listener has found the best way to shut off all the noise in the visual cacophony around him by closing his eyes," Christensen says. "Listening to his still, small, inner-voice, he remains centered without being overcome. We can all find peace in this busy world, but sometimes need to be reminded that we are in charge of our destiny and each of us has the ability to focus without being pushed and pulled as victims." The characters found in the colorful "noise" around the listener in this painting take many forms including politicians, mothers-in-law, musicians, and famous artists can you find Picasso? Through it all, our listener ignores the noise in favor of his own personal tranquility.

James Christensen 'Visitation/Preoccupation'
James Christensen 'Visitation/Preoccupation'
How often do we find ourselves too preoccupied within our own little worlds to realize when something truly momentous is happening outside of them? Are we paying enough attention to those around us to really hear what they are saying? Jim Christensen created this series "Winged Words" to poke fun at people (using barbed wire) and get them to realize, "Yeah, I do that, too."
In this extreme example, a very self-important individual, in all his pomp and finery, fails to realize the heavenly nature of his visitor because he's just not listening. In Latin, the angel says, "I am dead." The man's response to his rather uncommon occurrence, "How do you like my clothes?" underscores how little he is paying attention. The pear in the man's hand, one bite taken-bordering on the over-ripe, is a reminder that we may not have all the time we think we do to amend these failures in communication.

James Christensen 'Twilight'
James Christensen 'Twilight'
"This painting is a love story," says James Christensen. "Love on many different levels, but most importantly, the power of that which is everlasting. It is rich in symbols that suggest the close of a chapter; the twilight hour of day, the final phase of the moon, the turning leaves on an autumn tree and the checkerboard road that comes to an end. Even though this couple needs help in just getting around, they seem unconcerned. Despite the limitations of old age, they are supported by loved ones, surrounded by a lifetime of favorite things and they have each other. The carnation he offers her is a symbol of enduring love."

James Christensen 'We Three Kings'
James Christensen 'We Three Kings'
"We have seen his star in the east…" - Matthew 2:2
The sudden appearance of a new and brilliant star set the kings of the East on one of the Bible's better-known journeys. Through the centuries, paintings have shown as many as eight kings. Some debate whether the magi were actual kings or a group of scholars, astronomers and priests. The Western tradition of three kings most likely arose from the three gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh that they brought to "the newborn King." James C. Christensen provides us with a gift to treasure the whole year through. In his original painting, the star and the three gifts of the kings are gold leaf. For both the print and canvas editions, we were able to recreate this radiant effect, in fact, the canvas is hand-crafted with 22-karat gold leaf.
Each new Christensen offering this year has sold out at the Publisher, and we're certain this will follow. So be sure to contact your local dealer before this gift disappears.

James Christensen 'All The World's A Stage'
James Christensen 'All The World's A Stage'
Kings, queens, knaves and clowns... your favorite Shakespearean characters come to life! the Bard and more than 50 of his dramatis personae take a bow in this remarkable tribute to Shakespeare's entire canon-38 plays, including the obscure Two Noble Kinsmen. With the Old Globe Theatre as backdrop, James
assembles an eclectic cast of fictional characters and actors in rehearsal mingling with a few thespians who never tread the boards (but might have flittered above them). You'll find Romeo proffering a rose to Juliet, who rebuffs the salacious overtures of Henry VIII. Viola of Twelfth Night is in the act of binding her breasts to fill the manly role of Cesario, while beside her other Shakespearean heroines don male apparel to play their virile counterparts- all the more interesting when you consider that in Shakespeare's day men played all the female roles. Caesar is a self-portrait-an opportunity for the artist to make a statement about backstabbing (he doesn't like it!) and revel in applause (notice Titus Andronicus giving him a warm hand). All humor aside James' prodigious knowledge of Shakespeare manifests in a work offering multiple layers of meaning and countless discoveries. All the World's a Stage was commissioned by the Utah Shakespearean Festival-winner of this year's Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre-in celebration of its 40th anniversary.

For 2,400 years, physicians have honored Hippocrates' sacred vow to treat a patient with empirical, scientific wisdom and ethical consideration. However, as James C. Christensen wittily reveals in The Oath, not all aspects of medical antiquity have stood the test of time and Hippocrates could never have imagined some others. Just as attorneys everywhere warmly responded to the self-deprecating humor of Christensen's image A Lawyer More Than Adequately Attired in Fine Print, we think members of the medical profession will appreciate a healthy dose of The Oath. Accompanied by a decorative Hippocratic Oath suitable for framing and a key of over 60 medical references.

A Hand-Tinted Original Stone Lithograph by James C. Christensen

Elegant and captivating are the two hallmarks you should expect of any James Christensen Hand-Tinted Original Stone Lithograph. Finding Fish is an excellent companion to Christensen's When Faeries Talk with Fishes (Sold Out at Publisher). In James' visual vocabulary, a floating fish connotes the presence of "magic," the type of which he leaves for you to define. Stone lithography is considered an original art form because the image itself is created on the stone before the lithograph is made. Each lithograph of Finding Fish will be hand-colored by the ubiquitous Magic Fish Studio so each will be slightly different and completely unique.

James Christensen 'Garden Rendezvous'
A footfall breaks the silence as the mist drapes aimlessly about ruins that date back to the time of Avalon. The woman in the painting has just heard the sound and turns in its direction. A rendezvous is about to take place…

You cannot accuse Jim Christensen of being anything but an incurable romantic. While exploring the grounds of Castle Combe in southern England, Jim found himself taken in by the mood of a foggy day and stunning a rock wall that seethed a storied history. "This piece" Jim says, "is about a sense of place and the flights of fancy a location can evoke if you let it."

Jim lost himself in the painting of the old stones and textures. He spent about a month working on the wall and far less time painting the woman."I felt my job here was to set the scene, to breathe life into a magical location. However, what noise she heard, and the meeting about to take place-that's up to the viewer's imagination."

St. Brendan's fame rests on the mythical adventure described in Brendan's Voyage, a 10th century romance of Brendan and a company of monks sailing the Atlantic Ocean to the Promised Land. One of the stories of the voyage relates that Brendan, wishing to celebrate Easter Mass, landed on a small island in the middle of the ocean. After celebrating Mass, Brendan and his companions built a fire on which to cook a meal and thus awakened the sleeping whale they had mistakenly identified as a small island. Terrified, the voyagers rushed to their ship and fled. Since then, St. Brendan has been associated with whales and large fish.

James Christensen 'Balancing Act'
James Christensen 'Balancing Act'
Like The Burden of the Responsible Man, this is a very autobiographical piece. I just didn't know how I could balance another thing in my life, and then, bingo, this idea came into my head. Life is a balance between fun and work, spiritual qualities, education, nutrition … our lives are continuously balancing acts. Of course, some of us make it a little more complex by putting our only balancing foot on the back of a moving turtle. Why are there three clocks in the image? Because we're always balancing time.
There are many specific symbols in the image. Most of them are far from obscure, but the little neat secrets include a king statue, the symbol of the omnipresence of politics and government. The skull is a spring hare skull, with a little label that reads "spring hare - lost race." It's a joke, but it also symbolizes mortality. The owl and the pussycat represent marriage, which is a major balancing act. The Latin in the image means "Equilibrium (balance) is to be desired." In other words, as long as you remain upright, you're okay.
Those are just a few things, but everything here means something. What do they mean to you?

"The Master was able to make a living only through the support of his patrons, and Isabella was one of the foremost patricians of his entire career," explains James. "It was customary at the time for the wealthy to request their portraits take on the literal characteristics of angels. With Isabella, her wings suggested much more to the Master, as she served as a inspiration in his calling. The love of art and encouragement of promising talent is a dance which allows this circle of creation to persevere."

James Christensen  'When Faeries Talk To Fishes' -  Hand Colored Print
James Christensen 'When Faeries Talk To Fishes' - Hand Colored Print
From the Magic Fish Studio, the home of James Christensen, comes this sophisticated yet whimsical piece of fine art. It sprang to life as an unfinished verse in the artist's sketchbook:

"When Faeries talk with Fishes, both express their wishes
When Fishes talk to Faeries, the conversation varies..."

Soon a drawing appeared above the unfinished lines of the poem.
The magic of the initial muse carried over into the decision to create the work as an original stone lithograph. It is a stone lithograph because James actually drew the image on a 300 lb. limestone. This is all the more impressive considering the image is created in reverse onto the stone. The image is transferred from the stone onto a sheet of fine watercolor paper by hand on a lithographic press. The final stone lithograph is considered original because this image does not exist as we see it until the lithograph is produced.
Hand-tinting original stone lithographs predate color printing. That the color work on each is added by hand enhances the concept of each being an original; no two are exactly alike. Further, we are able to offer the lithograph tinted with either amber or pastel hues.

"We are, each of us, angels with only one wing.
And we can only fly embracing each other."
- Luciano De Crescenzo

In dreams, it is said that wings represent a release of creative forces, that they give us the ability to understand and transcend the human condition. In religion, wings appear on angels, fairies, spirits and demons. In mythology, winged creatures are often messengers of the gods; they are a symbol of freedom and spirituality and a character having one wing is said to be lost in dreams. This latest release from James C. Christensen has the power to both provoke and inspire.

James Christensen 'Ten Lepers'
James Christensen 'Ten Lepers'
"And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, and with a loud voice glorified God, And fell down on his face at his feet, giving him thanks: and he was a Samaritan. And Jesus answering said, Were there not ten cleansed? but where are the nine? There are not found that returned to give glory to God, save this stranger. And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole."
Luke 17:15-19

As he did with The Widow's Mite, James Christensen interprets one of the Bible's more powerful stories and presents us with an image of elegance, grace and beauty. At the same time he engages us in one of the higher promises of art: provoking thought. In fact, the art of reflection is at the core of the painting's message.
The Ten Lepers were a group of men cured of their disease through one of Christ's miracles. Their tattered wrappings suggest what was, until this moment, their illness. Of the ten, nine are too preoccupied celebrating their new lease on life to think of anything else, much yet thank him. The tenth, at this moment, grasps truly what has occurred. He is the only one that returns to acknowledge the Master.
This image provides an inspiring reminder to take a moment from our fast-paced world and reflect on what we have to be thankful for. And, just as importantly, to take the time to show this gratitude.

Inspired by a recent mural project, James Christensen set out on an awfully big adventure. Wanting to do something grand and romantic while exploring the texture, surface and richness of paint, James chose for his subject three of Paul's greatest virtues - in the form of three women. "This piece is a little bit of a departure," Jim says. "But these gifts of the spirit are important qualities for us to remind each other about." The words in gold leaf identify the three as their names appear in the original Greek Biblical text.

"And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three;
but the greatest of these is charity."

James Christensen 'A Man And His Dog'
James Christensen 'A Man And His Dog'
A man and his "dog" enjoy a time-honored relationship in which both parties accept each other's flaws and peculiarities. The gentleman portrayed here might assert that his waistcoat is properly buttoned, each sock is in place, and the items in his pocket are delicious doggie treats for his canine companion, yet his "pet" would never quibble. Indeed, this "dog" could easily break the tie that binds him to his master-the leash is far from strong-but he chooses to remain by his side. Our "Professor of Imagination," James C. Christensen, advises us to assess our relationships without getting bogged down in details. "I think we can be happy with our perceptions of ourselves if we can honestly say, 'Nothing I'm doing is importantly wrong' ". . . and if we can say the same of our friends.

James Christensen 'A Lawyer More Than Adequately Attired'
James Christensen 'A Lawyer More Than Adequately Attired'
Christensen's new print inspires closer examination....this stout attorney is adorned with lots of legal mischief. Just some of the touches: his assistant gives him enough rope to hang himself (or his clients!), he has an ample supply of loopholes sewn onto his coat, he is covered in that infamous fine print we all ignore-and much more. This print comes with its own "notice of Discovery and Inspection" document that reveals all.
