It's A Beautiful Tree, Contemporary Landscape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse


12" x 12" x 1.5"  Acrylic, $150

This painting was so much fun to create.
First I painted all kinds of colors randomly all over the canvas.
Then I looked for a glimmer of an image with the patches of color.
I thought maybe a tree was in there somewhere, so using the background colors,
I began "sculpting" the image by painting the negative space.
I've been pretty happy with the results.
The 1.5" sides are painted in the same colors,
it has a hanging wire, and so it is ready to hang,
no frame needed.

My Night Sky, Abstract Seascape Paintings by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse


12" x 16" Oil, $95

If I had my druthers I would live at the beach, 
and this truly would be my night sky.
An abstract seascape, depicting the moon over the sea,
with a hint of foreboding and maybe confusion,
my hope is that the piece will bring forth feelings
from the individual viewer.
Because we are in the process of selling our home
and downsizing,
I'm calling this my unofficial moving sale.

Birth, Contemporary Monoprints by Arizona Artist Amy Whitehouse


6" x 6" Monoprint, $65

During this hectic season of my life,
I have found it more manageable to do small
monoprints
rather than oil paintings.
It's also been a great media in which to
explore abstract artwork.
This contemporary piece
brought to mind the concept of birth
whether of an idea, a being, a plant ~
but something organic.
