Join Amy to enjoy late fall plein air landscape and alla prima flower painting. 

As long as I have painted I have been influenced by seasons as well as my emotional state while working. My approach to a bouquet, a landscape, or an interior will be different depending upon weather, the quality of light, whether I am tired and crabby or energized and happy.

Empowering artists to take the creative risk.

I’m on a creative journey, constantly surprised by what unfolds on my canvas. I’m deeply drawn to painting the human figure, exploring its emotional vulnerability in everyday life. My work reflects the impermanence of existence, using bold strokes and unfinished lines.
