Chris Harmon
BIO
Chris Harmon is an artist, educator, and proud parent, living and working in Portland, Or. His role as Art Handler at the Jordan Schnitzer Family Foundation provides a limitless well of inspiration for his printmaking practice. In his monotypes, Chris often focuses on non-objective abstraction imagery, allowing experimental mark making to drive the image. Harmon teaches an evening block-printing class at Multnomah Arts Center, that he has developed over the last ten years. His interest in printmaking was strengthened during a lithography apprenticeship with Mahaffey Fine Art, as well as a study abroad at Il Bisonte in Florence, Italy. Chris received his Bachelor of Arts in Drawing, Painting, and Printmaking from Portland State University in 2008.
