Collection: Amy Louise

Amy studied Art and Graphic design up to A-level then went on to study Fashion Design and graduated from The University of Lincoln in 2011. She then completed a residency in Sweden for a Festival, working on designing and making elaborate costumes for the dancers of the Carnival.

There is no doubt that her background in fashion inspires her paintings. The development of creating textile designs and her new collection of paintings share similar processes. Building and developing characters, giving the animals personalities, truly brings the artwork to life. The vibrant colours of the characters immediately catch your eye against the neutral Farrow and Ball backgrounds –and the bold bitumen outlines give the work a real punch of contrast. There is something magical about these cheeky little characters. You could have a taste of paradise from an exotic bird sitting comfortably next to a British Hare.
