Summary:	"Canadian artist Ted Harrison began to paint as a young boy in school, and in the years since, has worked and taught as an artist, illustrator and author. The artist's move to the Yukon in the 1960s opened up his style to the breathtaking artistic interpretations of sea, land and sky that are so strongly associated with his work. This collection showcases the multitudes of subjects and settings that he depicts in his signature style of sweeping lines and broad swatches of solid pigment. Pairing bold, whimsical colours with sophisticated depictions of the life and culture of the people who live in the wintery North, Ted Harrison's paintings have a time-tested value and charm that appeals to all ages. This volume is a compendium of some of Harrison's best and most memorable paintings. With an introductory essay by author Robert Budd, this collection is a tribute to one of Canada's most-loved artists."--
