Aaron Peever was born and raised in Bridgend in South Wales, UK. He first found a desire to practice fine art at Cardiff Arts Academy and decided to develop his artwork at Arts University Bournemouth. He graduated in 2020 with BA Hons Fine Art. Through his degree, Peever found his passion for oil painting and gained an understanding of the medium.
From the experiences in his personal life, he developed his concepts around the human condition and society, often looking into British culture and alcohol usage. Peever’s vivid but muted colour palette reflects an honest representation of emotional stereotypes within alcohol culture in Britain. Peever contrasts his contemporary subjects with medieval English to evoke the social status of economic backgrounds.
