An amazing children's book..."A BRUSH FULL OF COLOUR, Celebrates the World of Ted Harrison".

Written by Canadian authors, and art lovers, Margaret Ruurs and Katherine Gibson, A BRUSH FULL OF COLOUR will introduce children, and some adults too, to the world of iconic Canadian landscape painter, Ted Harrison. Mr. Harrison collaborated on the book. He now lives on Vancouver Island, after living, and painting for many years in Canada's far North, and Yukon Territories. Many of his well-known paintings depict this time spent among Canada's First Nation Communities of the North. Ted Harrison's paintings reflect the joy, love and colour he experienced!
