Harriet Frank was raised in Key West. She received a BA at NYU, and an MFA at Columbia in New York. Except for an education in finger paints, she had been a self taught child prodigy selling at the Key West Art Center from the age of 12.

She finds marine scenes and international yacht racing an exciting format, turning them into unique collector art. She is in the permanent collection of Walter Cronkite and Charles Kuralt as well as many prominent island homes and yacht clubs.

Her ethereal watercolors are viewer friendly and help to bring out the desire for escape in paradise in all of us, to experience a joyful discovery of the sunny side of life.
