"I have been painting wildlife because I can give a voice to the animals that we share this planet with. It should be our pleasure to help them and protect them. For these reasons I moved to Jackson Hole, Wyoming three years ago where I am closer to the bears, bison, wolves and bald eagles. Spending time watching them is one of my favorite things to do. I try to do my part by donating artwork to several organizations that participate in the conservation of our beautiful country and its inhabitants. Emotions, personalities, and a sense of humor are traits in which I try to capture in each painting. Sometimes my animals have humanlike characteristics that you can see in their expressions and souls through their eyes. I am showing the level of similarities between our two species, and how both need to be treated with kindness and respect. Animals are smart, strong, powerful and beautiful and we should celebrate them with amazement." "My distinctive expressionistic and cubistic styles are the result of a "fortuitous accident" when my ink began to drip on a vertically standing canvas, creating an unpredictable effect that I have adopted into a painting technique. I allow uncontrolled black lines to delineate areas that I either complete with realistic detail or abstraction. I use bold colors next to neutral ones, gestural linework, and an element of unpredictability in order for my audience to experience the beautiful American West through my eyes. I capture the essence, personalities and emotions of my animals and landscapes, and I go after the heart of what I see." Amy has been involved in several arts festivals in Jackson Hole, and has done work for the "Trail of Painted Ponies" in Scottsdale. She has worked with The Yellowstone Association and supported several organizations through donated pieces to the Jackson Hole Conservation Alliance, the Earthfire Institute, Art for Orphans, The Glacier Institute, Petsmart Charities and the Art Association of Jackson Hole. Her most recent accomplishment was being chosen as one of Southwest Art's "21 Under 31 Emerging Artists of 2005."
