Abstract
Like his well—known poet predecessor, Robert Service, Yukon artist Ted Harrison left his native northern England and, after extensive travel, discovered the Canadian North. His bright and vibrant paintings vividly portray both the rugged landscape and the special spirituality of the Yukon. Writer, teacher, and illustrator as well, Ted Harrison has a unique perspective on art, on the North, and on the special attributes and challenges that define Canada.
