About the Item
Mark Harrison’s "Phone Home" (2024) is a captivating original oil painting that immerses viewers in a solitary desert scene defined by expansive silence and subtle human presence. Set against a luminous twilight sky, the composition draws the eye toward a glowing house tucked quietly in the vast landscape, accentuated by power lines that stretch across the terrain like veins of connectivity. The careful balance between natural forms and man-made structures speaks to themes of isolation, communication, and the quiet resilience of remote living.
The painting showcases Harrison’s mastery of light and atmosphere. A central burst of soft, warm light diffuses through the thick clouds, casting the rugged mesas and arid plains in a haunting, dreamlike glow. Vertical utility poles provide a strong compositional rhythm and echo the solitary stance of the dwelling below, evoking a poignant sense of distance and connection.
Rendered in oil on canvas, the work measures 11.87 x 31.5 inches (30.15 x 80.01 cm) and is presented in a dark custom frame with a gilt inner edge, bringing the total framed size to 17.37 x 37 inches. This piece is a compelling example of contemporary realist landscape painting, ideal for collectors drawn to atmospheric Western scenes and nuanced storytelling through light.

Mark Harrison
Mark Harrison (born 1951) is a UK-based artist whose career spans both fantasy illustration and fine art painting. Initially establishing himself as a prolific freelance illustrator from 1974 to 2002, Harrison created over 480 book jacket illustrations primarily for fantasy and science fiction publishers across the UK and US. Around 2003-2005, he transitioned exclusively to fine art, initially working in chalk pastel before adopting oil paint as his primary medium. Harrison's work explores diverse themes, evolving from Southeast Asian influences and imaginative realism to evocative cityscapes of London and New York, and more recently, striking single light source paintings including moonlit scenes. His artistic philosophy emphasizes beauty and mystery beyond mere prettiness. Harrison's achievements include the British Science Fiction Association's prize for Best Artwork (1991/1992), multiple Chesley Award nominations, and exhibition in prestigious venues including London's Mall Galleries and Cork Street galleries.
