Arthur Henry Howard Heming (1870-1940) was a Canadian painter and novelist known as the "chronicler of the North" for his paintings, sketches, essays and books about Canada's North.

Born in Paris, Ontario and raised in Hamilton, he studied in New York and London under artists Frank Vincent DuMond and Frank Brangwyn. He was colour blind and as a result worked mostly in black and white.
