Derek Harrison

The Southwest in particular  has been the perfect setting to build dramatic compositions and set the scene for interesting  stories. His focus on figurative art and the portrait has led to many awards and a career that  focuses on the variety of unique individuals this corner of the world provides. His works have  appeared in feature films, television shows and multiple publications. He was included in  Southwest Art Magazines 21 under 31 and has established himself as a solid voice in the  realist art movement with an emphasis on Western Art.
