CONTACT US SKU#: 117371 US Shipping $90 + insurance. BIOGRAPHY: Except for a brief period of study at the Art Student's League in New York, James Harrington is self taught. Initially influenced by the writings of "Ash Can School" artist Robert Henri, Harrington he has gone on to develop his own theories of color and composition. In his use of color, he seeks combinations that are fresh and unusual and suffuses his paintings with light. His placement of figures and objects in his paintings is based on a careful balance of color and an asymmetrical compositional rhythm, which he has described as "leading the eye with meter."An elected member of the American Society of Marine Artists, Harrington has a reputation initially founded on his work with marine subjects but expanded into a much broader scope focused on. humanity in general rather than a specific locale. His art seems to suggest events that began before and continue after the particular moment depicted. The viewer is invited to invent stories and find the significance of what is taking place. Viewed in the aggregate, as at an exhibition, Harrington's work continually surprises us with the variety and range of imagination displayed.James Harrington's work has been featured in a number of publications including American Artist magazine (July 1987, pp. 42-47), and Susan Rayfield's book, Marine Painting: Techniques of Modern Masters (N.Y., Watson-Guptill, 1991, pp. 104-109, 138).
