Ted Harrison
Ted Harrison is one of Canada's most popular and beloved artists whose love of the land and people of the Yukon has brought him national acclaim.  His distinctive painting style is colourful and sophisticated yet retains an innocent charm.  He is also an internationally recognized author and illustrator of children's books and has spent much of his career teaching art to children of all ages.

His work can be found in numerous private and public collections throughout Canada and in England, Australia, New Zealand, the United States, Germany and Japan.  In 1987 he received the Order of Canada for his contribution to Canadian culture and was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from Athabasca University in Alberta in 1991 and an Honorary Doctorate in Fine Arts from the University of Victoria in 1998.  Other honours include being the first Canadian to have book illustrations selected for the International Children's' Book Exhibition in Bologna, Italy.
