David Smith-Harrison
Royal Palm With Turkish Design, by David Smith-Harrison

1993

About the Item

Signed, titled artist proof. Edition of 135. Like much of his work, Royal Palm has atmosphere of the Mediterranean, but all of the elements are rooted in the artist's neighborhood. The arches along the bottom of the print are from the façade of the Barker Building in Berkeley. The floor plan in the center right is is a reference to Charles A Platt: the Artist as Architect. It also contains drawings of a Mayan building and drawings by Frank Lloyd Wright. Royal Palm with Turkish Design is an interplay between the architectural rendering and the modeled line work of the palm. The border in the upper half of the print features a pattern from an early Ottoman brocade. David Smith-Harrison studied at Utah State University and served as studio assistant to Adrian Van Stuchelen and Moishe Smith. In 1983 he traveled in Europe and studied at the Art and Design Faculty of South Glamorgan Institute in Cardiff, Wales. Before leaving for Europe, Smith-Harrison began an intense professional association as a studio assistant to artist Trevor Southey. Smith-Harrison’s imagery is distinctive for its meticulous and studied execution and rigorous, demanding craftsmanship. The results are generally rich in subtle articulations and poetic spirit. His work is located in private collection in Japan, Taiwan, Republic of China, Spain and the United States.
