(b. 1984) is an American artist whose oil paintings blend the iconic landscapes of the American West with elements of surrealism and magical realism. Drawing from his background as an award-winning animator and illustrator, Christie's oil paintings often feature unexpected  juxtapositions, such as levitating cowboy hats or horses leaping over ghost towns, inviting viewers into dreamlike narratives that blur the boundaries between reality and the fantastical.

Christie is influenced by the acid westerns of the late 1960s and early 1970s, the literature of Cormac McCarthy, and the paintings of Maynard Dixon, Frederic Remington, and the Taos Society of Artists. His recent pieces, inspired by family road trips through the Southwest, delve into the intricate relationship between the environment and its inhabitants. His paintings will be featured in the forthcoming book Stetson: An American Icon.
