About the Artist:
Amy Hunter's artwork takes its main course from the earth we walk upon daily. A visual escape into the mountains, the desert, the sea, away and alone to breathe in the fresh air and feel the serenity of nature. Amy grew up in the farming deserts of Nevada. Exploring the mountains on her Grandparent's ranch is a favorite inspirational memory that was the spark for her love of nature. After studying photography at Utah State University, Amy headed for the marketing industry, where she worked full-time as a commercial photographer for nearly 9 years. Her work took her back to Nevada, as well as California, Utah, and Idaho, where she currently lives with her family. After working in the fast-paced marketing world, Amy has shifted her focus to family and the fine arts. Her painting collage process is a source of escape from everyday life, which has evolved from her years of travel all over the world. In the beauty of southeast Idaho, she can truly enjoy the outdoors daily. Amy is usually accompanied by her husband and two daughters, picking wildflowers and exploring the mountains.
