Amy Hewitt
Artist Statement
The colors, textures and shapes found in the natural world are my creative inspiration. I have been refining the art workshops offered in my studio, including printing, collage, rock wrapping, watercolor painting and nature journaling. While including the elements of art and principles of design in my art classes, I continue to improve my own practice.
