Amy Ward is a self-taught painter from Indianapolis. From Amy’s website, amywardstudio.com: “These are paintings to interact with. The artwork created is not simple; in fact, there is no end of discoveries to be found in any one painting. It takes time to grow to love every nuance of every stroke, yet there is an immediate infatuation that will compel a collector to take it home and begin to fall in love.” Amy is not only a creator, but also an organizer. She is a freelance administrator that aids with venue booking, art rotation, networking, public relations, and exhibit/event productions for a group of businesses and artists. Several artists represented by Ward have exhibited at the Frankfort Library over the past few years including Darrell Staggs, David Slivka, Christine Merchent, and Matthew Macklin. Be sure to stop by the Hubbard gallery in FCPL in September to see Amy’s vibrant abstract artwork that full of texture and life.
