Greg Harrison was born and grew up in Newcastle NSW. He moved to the ACT to study drawing and printmaking under Petr Herel and Dianne Fogwell in the unique Graphic Investigation Workshop at the Canberra School of Art (ANU). It was during that time he learnt mezzotint engraving. He moved to Melbourne at the turn of the century to further his studies at the VCA.

Since then Greg has practised printmaking and exhibited many times in Melbourne and nationwide.

He is represented in the collections of regional galleries across Australia. He also regularly and enthusiastically participates in Rona Green’s famous print exchanges.

Greg has worked as a sessional teacher at RMIT, Monash University and the VCA. He has also worked casually as a printmaking technician at both Monash University and the VCA.

Greg continues to create his own figurative mezzotints and etchings at his press in Coburg.
