His Artwork
See the artwork
Ivey was born and raised in Eastern North Carolina. Prolific as a painter, his love for painting began at an early age and spans a 30-year period.
Drawing from personal experiences, Ivey uses bold, vibrant colors to express feeling and emotions, making each of his pieces come to life with their own distinct personality. Music, dance, coastal imagery, local and pastoral scenes of his native North Carolina are just a few of the subjects he paints.
Mr. Hayes received a BA from North Carolina Central University. He performed graduate studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and then achieved a Master of Fine Arts degree in 1975 from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro.
Ivey has won numerous awards for his work. His artwork has been exhibited throughout his home state of North Carolina, Washington D.C., Boston, and New York as well as galleries and private collections in the United States.
