Hello, art enthusiasts and curious minds, and welcome to my very first art blog! My name is Amy Wheeler-Harris, and I am thrilled to have you here. Whether you're a fellow artist, an admirer of creative expressions, or just someone with a penchant for all things artistic, I'm excited to share my passion for art with you.
A little about me: I have embarked on a colorful journey through the world of art, starting with my studies in Fine Arts at the University of the Free State in South Africa. Over the years, I've been fortunate enough to travel the world, soaking in the beauty and diversity of cultures, landscapes, and artistic traditions. However, my heart eventually found its home in the city of Bloemfontein, South Africa.
My artistic palette is as diverse as my travels. I enjoy working with various mediums, including ink, watercolor, oil paint, pencil, and charcoal. My creative odyssey took an interesting turn during my travels, leading me to explore the world of sketchbook drawings and the captivating allure of ink and watercolor. Through these explorations, I found myself frequently drawn to capturing the essence of animals and bringing fairytales to life on paper.
Since returning to the heart of South Africa, I've refocused my artistic lens on a profound theme: the feminine. My recent works delve into the rich symbolism of the feminine in art, manifesting in the graceful forms of cats and the enchanting allure of the moon. These symbols have become a canvas through which I explore the many facets of femininity, spirituality, and the interconnectedness of the natural world.
As I embark on this creative journey, I'm excited to share my thoughts, techniques, and the stories behind my artwork through a series of upcoming blog posts. We'll dive deeper into the world of art, discussing various styles, techniques, and the profound impact of symbolism in art. Whether you're an art aficionado or a curious beginner, my aim is to inspire and engage you in the captivating world of artistic expression.
I invite you to join me on this artistic adventure. Stay tuned for exciting blog posts, tutorials, and a glimpse into my creative process. Together, we'll embark on a journey through the world of art, where imagination knows no bounds.
Thank you for visiting my website, and I look forward to sharing the magic of art with you.
Warm regards,
Amy Wheeler-Harris
