James Christensen - Collector's Edition Book

Desirable Above All Other Fruit
Artist James Christensen’s newest book, Lehi’s Dream was recently published along with a signed fine art giclee canvas of the book's featured painting, "Desirable Above All Other Fruit" (left).

“Tree of Life imagery and its symbolism are present in almost every world creation myth and mythology,” explains artist James Christensen. “References, in one form of another, can be found in the Book of Genesis, Chinese and Norse mythology, Hinduism and pre-Columbian Mesoamerican cultures.”

“Lehi’s Dream (1 Nephi 8) is a wonderful example of this and the Tree of Life is a powerful image. The story and the painting remind us that the fruits of the tree are available to everyone that tries to live a good life. There is a path to be followed and at the end there is the Tree, the love of God, and his fruits are there for all of us to enjoy.”
