About the Item
Mark Harrison's (UK based) "Valley of the Rocks" is an oil painting that depicts an arid landscape with clouds and towering rock formations.
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.

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.
