Artist Bio

Jim Christopher finds the means of expression for his vivid creativity in both painting mediums of oil and watercolor.

Following much success in graphic design, he brings fresh insight to his work. His keen perception of light and color creates paintings that are impressionist in nature, with delicate attention to detail and with exclusion of the unnecessary.

Mr. Christopher began painting at age 50. His paintings are displayed in many corporate collections and private homes worldwide. His commision works are a remarkable blend of his creativity interacting with client direction.

He entered the world of Fine Art with an intense desire to express his creativity in this new medium for his next 50 years.
