Illustration and Painting Gallery
Amy mainly uses watercolor, gouache, acrylic, pen and ink to complete her pieces. A version of them makes their way into her metal and leather items, coloring books and other books. Many of the pieces below and dozens more are available at art and craft shows and comic expos throughout the year. New pieces are being done all the time. To get a full view of many of her paintings please check out her husband, Tanner, and Amy’s in person shows.
The Acrylic paintings are a recent addition to Amy’s artistic journey.
In the summer of 2024, Amy experienced a concussion that temporarily hindered her ability to work with watercolorus. Under the guidance of her occupational therapist, she began creating artwork with simple, broad strokes using acrylic paints. This practice not only served as a therapeutic aid in her recovery but also marked a meaningful expansion of her creative expression.
Acrylics are also used on her leather work as well.
Ink Drawings
Part of a series for a group exhibit at the Allied Arts Council. The theme of the exhibit was to use one main colour and any other colour is only use sparingly on details or accents. These three paintings are part of a story about how a small change can create significant impact.
Watercolour
Many of the animals, insects and birds are paintings based off my life as an invisibly disabled artist who experiences nature through my windows when I am unable to leave the house.
Scenery is based on where I grew up or places I seen when I’ve travelled.
