James Christensen


James C Christensen is a world-renowned artist.   Now retired as a professor of art at Brigham Young University for over 20 years, Christensen continues as a "Professor of Imagination."   His hope is that through whatever he creates he conveys a message, inspiration or a simple laugh.  Christensen believes that teaching people to use their imagination helps them keep going.   In short:  all things are possible when you share his philosophy  that "Believing is Seeing."

Christensens' prestigious commissions include the Utah Shakespeare Festival, the LDS Church, Time/Life Books and Omni, among others.  He has won all the professional art honors the World Science Fiction Convention can bestow, as well as multiple Chesley Awards from the Association of Science Fiction and Fantasy Artists and his work is prized in private collections.
