Harry Stooshinoff. An incredible artist with a wonderful ability to simplify. His paintings are striking! Be sure to check out his website – There is nothing like watching a video of a scene being painted. Magic!

I love Harry’s philosophy! He paints every day – his paintings are VERY reasonably priced. This is a man who clearly does what he loves every single day!

Read a bit about Harry, from his website:

I am both a painter and teacher. I hold a B Ed, BFA and an MFA. I have been producing artwork almost on a daily basis for over 35 years. A few decades ago I started making small pictures so that I could start and finish the piece in one sitting. The work is small because an intimate scale encourages maximum intuition, freedom, and experimentation.

My work is both abstract and figurative, and there is no inherent contradiction between these sensibilities; one inclination supports the other. 

 I am prolific and I do not wish to die with 10,000 paintings under my bed! Making small work also solved a few practical problems; small work is easy to mail. I very much enjoy selling art online. Mailing pieces to destinations all over the world is a great pleasure.

I live in the rolling countryside of the Oak Ridges Moraine, an ancient landform located just north of Lake Ontario, and am inspired by what I see every day. I roam this unique place in all seasons, and document my impressions. At first view, rural environments may seem natural, but they have been continually altered and reshaped by man. The landscape will be very different tomorrow; it seems negligent not to record how it looked and felt today.

It’s a big NOISY world, so I make small, quiet paintings.

Harry’s right, it IS a big NOISY world – check out those small paintings!

Catch you back here tomorrow!
