ripp Harrison began his career as a bit of a surprise. While attending business school in Atlanta, GA, he decided to take an art class for fun. Little did he know it would be the beginning of a lifelong fascination.
Over the course of the next few months, his ambition and interest changed into what would become his life’s work.
Intrigued by almost every medium he has explored, Harrison has reached a level of mastery almost unheard of for his young age, primarily focusing on alkyds (oils) and acrylics.
His latest works are a reflection of his love for the water, with an emphasis on the beautiful colors and substance of Florida and the Bahamas. It is his desire to express what he feels when looking at different objects and textures that inspires him to paint. Yet this talented artist has none of the affectations and emotional ponderings of the typical art scene. He is perfectly at home with a fishing pole or playing in the backyard with his 2 year old daughter, McKenzie.

A native of Miami, Harrison moved to Atlanta in 1983. After discovering his love of painting, he began a full time career in the arts at the age of 21. Immediately he began to draw the attention of the community and was featured quickly in local news. Harrison’s love for the water, however, soon drew him back to his beloved Florida. Now married, he and wife Kathleen, along with 2 year old McKenzie, have chosen to make their home in picturesque Central Florida.
Harrison’s work can be found in numerous private and corporate collections. His works have received considerable acclaim including magazine covers and national competitions.
