Charley Harper’s whimsical paintings have delighted art and animal lovers for more than sixty years. Harper (1922–2007) developed his unique style while a student at the Art Academy of Cincinnati and the Art Students League in New York City. His distinctive use of simple geometric shapes, patterns, and vivid colors—a style he defined as “minimal realism”—succinctly captured the essence of each creature he portrayed. Glacier Bay, Alaska, created for Glacier Bay National Park, was one of ten posters Harper was commissioned to create for the National Park Service. For ages 9 and up.
