The artwork and services of Amy Ward
Amy Ward produces innovative, spiritual paintings that demonstrate an unrivaled sense of color and form. Her abstract paintings illustrate how engaging simple symbiotic patterns can be… every bit as gripping as traditional portraits or landscapes. Her work is controlled chaos. Within any painting you can appreciate dozens of layers of activity. The sum total is balanced and thoughtful, bringing not only a sense of peace, but also a compulsion. The directive is to spend more time with each image, to get into it and find something that no one else has ever seen before. We are hardwired with the desire to find familiar shapes and objects even when there are no literal characters. We are intrigued and attracted to the composition of color forms, but in the end we will inevitably be reminded of something tangible. The magic is that this reminiscence will be different for every individual. This is the spiritual connection that you make with the painting on a very personal level. You may like a particular piece very much and never know what the attraction really is. And over the years you will doubtless find new and interesting things in the composition that you hadn’t noticed or connected to the first time you saw it. These are paintings to interact with. It takes time to grow to love every nuance of every stroke, yet there is an immediate infatuation that will compel you to choose one, take it home and begin to fall in love.
These are not simple paintings. There is no end of discoveries to be found in any one painting. Perhaps you enjoy finding objects hidden in the colors. You will find them. Perhaps there are particular colors that strike a chord in you. These will strike you. Whether you want to meditate or to search, look no further for the answer to your soul’s desires than these works of art.
