Biography from ArtSanDiego:
| The following biography is provided by Gary Stanley / ArtSanDiego:
Ted Christensen was born in 1911. He painted impressionist landscapes and seascapes in a variety of media. His images came from his extensive travels to New Mexico, California, Hawaii, and Europe.
After World War II, where he served as a machine gunner, he received an injury-related discharge, which forced him to search out other occupational avenues. He took up painting at this time. His formal training included time spent at the Otis Art Institute and the Museum School in Portland, Oregon.
He has exhibited widely throughout the Southwest and Northwest. He has been an award winner at the Oregon Society of Arts. His works are in the permanent collections of the University of New Mexico and St. John's College in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
In 1989 he was residing in Sonoma, California. He died in California in 1998.
