Amy Stone is a second-generation Angeleno whose love of her city is often reflected in her art. After receiving her B.F.A. in Communication Design from Otis Art Institute in the mid-80s, she began working professionally as a photographer and then as a web designer. It wasn’t until the pandemic lockdown that her focus, by necessity, shifted from client-driven to her own daily need to survive creatively. Fueled by a lifelong commitment to journaling, Amy Stone's art manifests visually through bold, colorful and expressive pieces ranging from the recognizable to the abstract. By combining layers of her own photos and digital drawings, she’s able to reveal outwardly what she’s experiencing inwardly. The combination of her many years as a photographer and a designer helps her reveal what the mind can see but the eye cannot, producing works that are often arresting in their content and mesmerizing in their appearance.
