User:LotteBristow/Harry Bilson

Harry Bilson, artist, was born in Reykjavik, Iceland, and grew up in London, England. His paintings celebrate the absurdity of life, full of colour and character.

At 21 Bilson had his first one-man show, and has since exhibited in many solo and group shows worldwide.

Bilson has a loyal following of international collectors including Bob Hawke, Jonathan Sachs, Anne Robinson, Clint Eastwood, Jack Palance, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Liv Ullman and many more.
