As a native Alabamian, Amy possesses an inborn love of history and heritage... of long ago places and people, simple times and romantic notions. It comes through in her art and all she does. Southern themes are a natural favorite... especially the magical Carnival nights in New Orleans. Amy comes by her talent naturally... it's a gift passed down for generations. Her lineage includes a long line of women with strong wills, sharp wits, and artsy spirits. And, their gentlemen husbands who appreciated (well, at least tolerated) the artistic spark in their ladies. "I suppose I learned to draw by watching my mother sketch, for I know that years ago my then toddler daughters saw me sketching and did the same with Crayolas."
"I get my inspiration from legends, stories, emotions, and people...especially people. There is a bit of a portrait in all my art, whether my subject's a very real person or a fairy or even a stray cat . I have a definite love of the heartfelt emotion, inventive ideas, and simple sensual pleasures that shows in my work."
