James Jensen

Mixed Media

James Jensen was raised in Fort Collins, Colorado, Jensen's creativity originally expressed itself in quite a different vein, the piano.  Jensen entered the University of Colorado with specific intent of becoming a concert pianist, always knowing his interests were in both music and art.  While technically brilliant, Jensen's true dream of composing music eluded him.  When he realized his aptitude for painting and drawing, he began to spend increasing amounts of time in the studio instead of at the keyboard.   When viewing Jensen's still life pastels, the influence of the Old World masters is unmistakable.  But there is an individuality in his work, a vibrancy that comes from the artist himself.    Now residing in California, Jensen spends a month each year in Italy immersing himself not only in the art, but also the food, the music and the Italian way of life.  He is an artist who likes to experience life.
