I am a painter and illustrator living and working in Chichester. I graduated from Bournemouth and Poole College of Art and Design.

I move naturally between the disciplines of illustration and painting and although they require different thinking caps, I find they often feed off and complement each other.

There are a wide range of influences that I draw on in my work- illustrators such as Saul Steinberg, Ben Shahn and Brad Holland, and painters such as Constable, Peter Doig and Nigel Cooke, amongst numerous others.

I have exhibited my paintings locally and nationally and my work is in collections here and abroad.

If you would like to discuss a project please do not hesitate to get in touch, I relish the collaborative process and am happy to bring my style to any subject matter you can think of !

I look forward to hearing from you.

John Harmer
