Harry is without a doubt the most versatile sculptor in South Africa today. He is known as the fastest sculptor in the world and can sculpt a portrait bust in a matter of hours.

He is even in the Guinness Book of records for making the biggest chocolate sculpture.

His work sells for record prices and is collected all over the world.  Owning an original by Harry Johnson has proven to be a very good investment.  Harry accepts commissions as that is the test of a true artist, to be able to produce work of integrity while taking direction from a client. He has made 3 National Monuments and many private commissions for some of the most prominent South African families. He has made portraits of many international sports stars, celebrities and statesmen.

While absolutely everyone else tries to make work with angst and “feeling” and dark and disturbing themes in an attempt to be different, in fact they simply end up being all the same. Harry’s work stands out firstly for his technical excellence and mastery of style and proportion not to mention that his faces are far above the standard of anyone else. Harry posesses the rarest abilty in sculpture in that he can capture a true likeness not only in facial features but even in physical posture.

Harry’s work was not available in any Gallery.  Harry has already produced more sculptures than any other SA sculptor in history. Making many sculptures does not deminish it’s value.
