Amy Alderson

I have worked as an artist in different mediums; video, live performance and painting. I currently work with spray paint, acrylic, oil, pastel, pencil and ink onto canvas. I was brought up around the theatre and it is this world of performance that strongly influences my work;the smoke filled dressing rooms and the worn out performers, part glamour, part grime,with the dream of success and the reality of the everyday.
