Scott Christensen’s transportive landscapes and coastal scenes shimmer with atmosphere, light and color. A former football player who was benched by a neck injury, Christensen discovered painting—another outdoor profession. Using a minimalist palette, he finds a scene’s most vital element and paints all other components to support it, conveying details as information. Christensen's diffused, Impressionistic works have been featured in many well-known magazines and numerous U.S. galleries.
