Hello, I'm Amy.
I'm an Austin-born creative living at the end of a dirt road west of what we always call "town." My parents bought what my grandmother fondly referred to as "a pile of rocks" in the early '90s and, with a lot of love and salvaged materials, built the home I grew up in. Now, my house and attached studio sit right next door to their charming wildlife habitat.
I believe that an interdisciplinary, artistic approach to life feeds a versatile existence, leading me down many delightfully unexpected creative paths. I have a love for wordplay and syllabic patterns, and my visual art often reflects this playful spirit. I see art as a way to communicate beyond the confines of dictionaries, language, and social norms. Visual art, for me, is a universal language with no dictionary to limit us. It's an open-ended riddle that invites personal interpretation and unique experiences.
Currently, my visual art focuses on abstract, hand-cut paper. Armed with tiny blades, I freehand cut my pieces, layer them with epoxy resin, and create intricate, abstract pieces. Leftover resin from framing is poured into custom silicone molds for resin jewelry. Additionally, I translate my designs into laser-cut jewelry of varying metals. I solder, sand, hammer, and polish these raw cuts into wearable art.
I showcase my work a few times a year in local Austin spots and occasionally participate in art tours and pop-ups. When the world isn’t upside down, I open my studio for gatherings and always welcome visitors by appointment. If you’re in the mood for an adventure, feel free to reach out and set up a private visit to my studio in the woods.
