John Harrington is a Canadian artist who has been painting for more than fify years. A self taught artist, John has been honing his techniques and skills while developing a unique style that has created a large following. His favorite medium is acrylic on canvas or board; his style can be described as realism and his subjects are based on his life experiences. “Nature is the artist. I try to duplicate it for others to enjoy” says John. Whether it is a couple of chairs sitting on a lakeside dock or a pair of loons swimming in front of a wall of rock, John tries to evoke a feeling of being there in the observer. John has travelled extensively including southeast Asia and Europe as well as The United States and every province in Canada. He has become known in some circles for his extensive travels and discoveries in the Canadian Arctic. Ten expeditions in search of the lost Franklin expedition of 1845 have resulted in numerous discoveries. John has produced over thirty limited editions, more than half of which are sold out.
