He employs a wide range of hues, from bright and bold to muted and somber, to create a sense of mood and atmosphere in his paintings. This is particularly evident in his landscapes, which often depict rural scenes and natural settings. Harrison's landscapes are not merely representations of the physical world, but rather, they convey a sense of the emotional and psychological landscape of the human experience.

He continues to experiment with new techniques and styles, always pushing the boundaries of what is possible in figurative painting. His work serves as a testament to the power of art to capture the complexities of the human experience and to transcend the boundaries of time and space.
