Mimi's Children and Animal Art
 

Welcome!!!  Very often, as we grown-ups…grow up, we begin to lose the magic and the wonder that we experienced as a child.  We trade in our giggles for sophistication…and think we are the better for it.  We stop laughing outright and begin chuckling quietly.  Well…not here!  We hope you'll take a minute or two to browse the Gallery (below) or check out the Greeting Cards page -- for a quick overview of all the prints -- and select a few for your children... or yourself!

Brand New!  Greeting Cards with your favorite Prints! In addition to prints, you can now purchase very high quality half-fold greeting cards featuring selected images from Mimi's gallery.  The cards are 5" x 7" with 4" x 6" images and are of a quality that is even suitable for framing.  The inside of the cards is left blank so that you can compose your own special message to people you care about. They're wonderful for birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, and as remembrances to relatives and friends.  See the Greeting Cards page for details.

Noah's Ark is a particularly beautiful treatment of this classic biblical theme. If Grandma Moses were still living, she'd probably be corresponding with Mimi as a kindred spirit. A pyramid of fun animals... an animal dance, a circus, an elegant tea-party and lots of other fun images to delight children.

Mimi Harvey is a painter and stone sculptor who currently has her home and studio in Asheville NC. She has sold hundreds of her works, which are now in private collections throughout the United States and in Europe, Africa and Japan. Many works are commissioned to enhance the decor of homes, and she is often asked to complement the colors of the environments in which her art is displayed. She has studied under Adolf Konrad and Raymond Thorley, two acclaimed New Jersey artists, and she has studied at the Art Students League in New York.

Her professional career began in 1979 when she was named manager of the Creative Blacksmith Gallery in New Hope, PA. In 1982 she became manager of the Amedeo Gallery in New Hope, owned by artist and sculptor Amedeo Ferri. In 1988, she began teaching art privately to adults and children.

Ms. Harvey’s recent work includes more than 25 prints of animals -- ranging from whimsical themes such as "Cats in Hats" to biblical themes such as "Noah’s Ark" to more realistic cat and dog art. Some of her original paintings, including watercolor and acrylic florals as well as framed prints are available at the Grove Corner Market, 77l Haywood Rd., Asheville, N.C.

Over 60 greeting cards are available online or at:
    The Corner Post, 732-B Haywood Rd., Asheville, NC

Mimi is adding a line of pet photo greeting cards. You can email or phone her for prices and details.

Several of Mimi's works were selected by a board of critics to be shown in the Asheville, NC Regional Airport in 2008 and 2009.

Her large prints, "Noah’s Ark" and "Peace on Earth", are available in numbered and signed limited editions. Mimi had a one man show for six months in 2008-2009 in downtown Asheville and two of her paintings were shown in the gallery of the Asheville Airport for three months in 2008-2009.
