Seth Harris

Seth Harris is a contemporary American painter. His figurative paintings often portray dancers, particularly women, from the New York City social dance scene. His work is strongly influenced by the oil paintings of Rembrandt, Caravaggio, and Sargent. His use of heavy texture puts his style somewhere between realism and impressionism. Born in Annapolis, MD in 1983, he received a Naval Architecture degree from NY Maritime in 2005. He lived on US flagged ships working as a merchant mariner until late 2010 when he became the artist in residence at a small Brooklyn art house. He regularly exhibits at the National Art League and the Salmagundi Club in New York City.
