Extremely right-brained

I grew up with a fascination or near obsession for all things ART.. From drawing, painting, music, and graphic design.. to makeup, hair, fashion, and photography. My creative juices are constantly flowing and I can't turn it off.  From grade school to beauty college, all of my text books and notebooks were covered in doodles and sketches. My house was littered with various art projects and crafts, and my personal style was ever-changing. For me there was always a certain sense of freedom in the expression of art.. an accomplished or calming feeling that often times relieved a lot of my stress. I tend to get easily overwhelmed with even minor situations around me in normal daily life (partly due to pretty severe ADD. Ha.) so escaping into an art project gives my brain some time to chill out.

Right now, I have several works in progress...

I decided to create this thing so I could have my very own space to share my artwork, hair and makeup creations, beauty and craft tutorials, and whatever else I feel like sharing to the world. So be sure to visit my blog frequently as I will try to update it daily.




Love, Amy.

New beginnings...

And birds fluttered around her, writing "yes" in the sky.

 It is here where she must begin to tell her story."
