Amy’s style is contemporary realism. Her years of using color and composition as a designer also influence her paintings. Her large flower portraits were influenced by her life-long love of plants and flowers. Then, the death of her Mother brought this calling full circle. Amy always gifted her Mom flowers on every occasion throughout her life and during her Mother’s two year struggle with cancer she sent her flowers every two weeks. After her death she couldn’t bring herself to paint much else. They are a symbol of birth, of growth and healing. So now, before she begins each painting, she makes specific healing intentions that she infuses into her work. Intentions such as unconditional love of self, letting your light truly shine, intense gratitude for health, and letting go. It is her desire that her paintings not only add to the aesthetics of the space but, are healing and meaningful to the owner.
