Amy Bautz is an artist in St. Louis, Missouri who loves color and can't make art without listening to music. Amy was trained as a photojournalist a UT Austin but she also took drawing courses and even exhibited a series of paintings in the UT art school gallery. She has been drawing and painting on an almost daily basis since she was a kid. Amy uses her photography training to observe and document the world around her, particularly plants and animals. Her work is playful and earthy, sometimes veering towards the psychedelic. Amy's hero is James Jean for his multimedia, figurative approach.
