Mark Harrison
Wrong Side of the Tracks, Original Oil Painting

2023

About the Item

Mark Harrison's (UK based) "Wrong Side of the Tracks" is an oil painting that depicts an illuminated storefront on the outskirts of a city with a towering night skyline in the the background. Sometimes they are silent epic landscapes of the Desert South West; sometimes, they are of an isolated building, maybe on the edge of a small town. I am drawn to the older buildings that are run down or deserted, where maybe it was too tough an existence and have been abandoned to the elements. But always above is the sky, often emphasizing the natural grandeur as well as the fragile isolation of human life below it. - Mark Harrison After painting nearly 500 book jackets for most major UK and USA publishers Mark Harrison gave up illustration in 2003 to concentrate on personal work for sale in fine art galleries.

  • "In the Afternoon, " Oil Painting
    By Stephen Day
    Located in Denver, CO
    Stephen Day's (US based) "In the Afternoon" is an original, handmade oil painting that depicts a snow covered hill dotted with grey remnants of foliage and row of pine trees that reach into the sun's afternoon glow. Stephen Day was born in Sheridan, Wyoming, and, while growing up he lived in Santa Fe, New Mexico, Aspen Colorado, and Durango, Colorado. He always felt the wonderfully unique beauty of the west but until he became an artist he really didn't know how to fully respond to that beauty. Day is now a full-time artist living in Taos, New Mexico. Working mainly in oil he paints various subjects from life but the landscape is his first love. He says of his working philosophy, "I paint almost exclusively from life trying to capture the feeling and the mood of the subject before me. This work philosophy forces me to paint quickly to get a spontaneous and fresh response, because everything around us (including ourselves) is in a constant state of change." Day frequently paints on location and uses these smaller paintings to create larger studio paintings. Artist's Background: 1976 - Bachelor of Arts Degree, McMurry College, Abilene, Texas 1980 - Master's Degree, Southern Methodist University, Dallas, Texas Studied at the Art Students League of Denver with Bruce Cody...
