About the Item

Signed, numbered, and titled by the artist from the edition of 200. Winter scene of cottonwoods in a field with a dusting of snow. Smith-Harrision's work very often features architectural elements, along with trees. This is one his largest prints, which took him two years to complete. The ornate imagery of spanish tile that borders the lower half of the print needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. The two palms are specific trees that Smith-Harrison encountered on a trip to Spain. David Smith-Harrison studied at Utah State University and served as studio assistant to Adrian Van Stuchelen and Moishe Smith. In 1983 he traveled in Europe and studied at the Art and Design Faculty of South Glamorgan Institute in Cardiff, Wales. Before leaving for Europe, Smith-Harrison began an intense professional association as a studio assistant to artist Trevor Southey. Smith-Harrison’s imagery is distinctive for its meticulous and studied execution and rigorous, demanding craftsmanship. The results are generally rich in subtle articulations and poetic spirit. His work is located in private collection in Japan, Taiwan, Republic of China, Spain and the United States.
