Pro Hart Original Blade Shearers - Oil Painting Much of Pro’s inspiration came from his early years spent on a sheep station and his lifelong connection to the Broken Hill region. He had an extraordinary gift for capturing both the harshness and the beauty of everyday life in the Australian outback—transforming familiar scenes into powerful visual narratives. His work not only reflected the unique spirit of the land and its people but also helped define a distinctively Australian voice in the world of art. Pro Hart, born Kevin Charles Hart (1928–2006), was a celebrated Australian artist whose vibrant paintings captured the heart and soul of the Outback. His unique style and storytelling ability led to numerous sell-out exhibitions worldwide. In 1976, he was honoured with a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE) for his outstanding contribution to Australian art. Pro Hart became a beloved household name after featuring in the iconic Stainmaster carpet commercial—earning him the title "The People's Artist." Authenticated and Valued at $12,400
