About the Artist:
Harris Strong (1920-2006) was born in Waukesha, Wisconsin. He served as an Army cryptographer during World War II, studying chemical engineering at North Carolina State University. After receiving his degree, he studied ceramic art at New York University. His aunt, the owner of a greeting card company, inspired him to pursue a practical career in art. In 1950 Strong and his wife, Rosyln, founded Harris G. Strong, Inc. in the Bronx, NY. Strong found his niche in decorated ceramic tiles and grew the company with each success. In 1970, a fire destroyed the glaze formulas that had been developed over the previous 20 years. At that point, the company pivoted to concentrate on other wall decor, such as prints, collages, and paintings.

Signed CARSON Original Oil on Canvas of a Mid Century Harbor Scene
This original oil on canvas depicts a harborscape, complete with boats and grizzled shacks, resting in the sunshine of a warm morning. Amarillo light plays delicately across the surface of the water with a light impasto technique rendering depth to this traditionally-themed painting. Housed in a wooden frame with green accents, this striking painting is signed “Carson” by the unknown artist in the lower left hand corner of the canvas.
