Path at Canoe Creek

Harvey has been painting professionally since 1969. His favorite representational subjects are Black Moshannon State Park, Ricketts Glen State Park and the Cape May and Avalon beaches. When multiple sclerosis impaired his vision, Harvey realized that if he were to continue in the visual arts, he needed workarounds in many aspects of his representational painting. Fortunately, Harvey has been able to find these and continues to paint. “Having visual impairment has helped me to appreciate how fragile is the mechanism of discerning reality through the eyes.”
