Aaron Harvey is a visual artist who has worked in many mediums including printmaking, needlework, and fused glass. Currently, his focus is on coloured pencil drawing and watercolour and acrylic painting. Across all mediums, he enlivens his work with bright and imaginative colour combinations. His early drawings focused on architecture and patterns, using geometric tools to create straight lines and sharp angles. Over time, his work has evolved to include lyrical linework and playful depictions of animals, people, and landscapes. Aaron enjoys artmaking as a way to feel connected to his late grandmother, who was also an artist. As a member of the Nina Haggerty Centre for the Arts (the Nina), a collective of Edmonton-based artists with developmental and other disabilities, Aaron has contributed to several collaborative projects including a permanent installation at the East Edmonton Health Centre. His work has been exhibited throughout Edmonton in galleries and public spaces. In 2024, Aaron received the Nina’s Artist of the Year Award in recognition of his commitment to his practice and his artistic achievements.
