Guy Harvey

Art Brokerage: Guy Harvey German Artist: b. 1955. Artist Guy Harvey is a unique blend of artist, scientist, diver, angler, adventurer and family man. Inspired at an early age by the sea around him, Guy Harvey enjoyed many hours fishing and diving from his father's canoe in his native Caribbean home of Jamaica. From Harvey's early inspirations, Guy's natural gift to recreate marine life has propelled him from a Professor of Marine Biology to a full time marine wildlife artist. Although encouraged to pursue his love of art more seriously, Guy opted for scientific training, earning high honors in Marine Biology at Aberdeen University in Scotland in 1977. Upon returning home to Jamaica Harvey continued his education and obtained a Ph.D. at the University of the West Indies. The countless hours of observation required to complete his thesis on the biology and ecology of coastal pelagic species served to further increase his knowledge of the marine environment. Guy Harvey's constant curiosity about the sea and its occupants keep Guy busily experimenting with new ways to recreate his subject. Art Brokerage has buyers for original paintings by Guy Harvey.
