John hartman artist biography

Hartman notes that his aerial viewpoints originate from his childhood dreams of flying; imagining the landscape unfurling like a roll of film below him. It defines my sense of space, light and scale. It is in this desire to intertwine people and place where Hartman deviates from the tradition of Canadian landscape painting, a subject that he is deeply knowledgeable about.

He is an aficionado on the work of David Milne and his invention of the colour drypoint etching, a medium which Hartman is now highly regarded for as well. In , Hartman received his appointment to the Order of Canada. We will process the personal data you have supplied in accordance with our privacy policy available on request.
