I’ve recently begun a new painting in my In Our Veins series. As featured here I start with a rough sketch on canvas to work out the positioning and basic outline of the subject(s) before moving on to the first layer of paint. It will be an acrylic on canvas and it is 10″ wide by 20″ high. I’ll be posting more about this piece soon, in the meantime, check out the series here: www.amyguidry.com/wild_west.html.

One of my very most recent paintings from my In Our Veins series has found a new home. I just posted it here recently but for those that are new, it is an acrylic on canvas, 6″ x 6,” titled Connections. In keeping with the series, Connections illustrates the connection between all of us and nature. View the painting online here: www.amyguidry.com/connections.html.

“Bound” by Amy Guidry; acrylic on canvas; 6″w x 4″h; SOLD; (c) Amy Guidry 2013

I’ve just finished two new paintings in my In Our Veins series. The first is titled Connections and is a 6″ x 6″ acrylic on canvas. The second is titled Bound and is 6″ wide by 4″ high, also acrylic on canvas. While both are different in content, the basis behind each painting is very similar. Both illustrate the connection between all species, whether plants or animals, including humans and serve as a reminder of the significance of such a relationship.

In Progress

I’ve recently begun a new painting in my In Our Veins series. It is a 6″ x 6″ acrylic on canvas. I started off with a very basic sketch on the canvas, basically outlining everything. Then I started roughing in a beginning layer of paint and as it progresses, I will be adding more layers of paint, building up the colors, and refining the details as I go. The finished painting will be posted here but in the meantime, view the remaining series online here: www.amyguidry.com/wild_west.html.

My work was recently featured on the Visual News. Managing editor Benjamin Starr writes, “The recent collection of paintings from Louisiana based artist Amy Guidry brings the surreal so certainly into existence it seems to easily step off the canvas into reality.” I also had the opportunity to answer a few questions about my series. You can read the feature online here: Visualnews.com/2013/04/09/amy-guidry-explores-the-psychology-of-life-and-death/#more-81985.

Cohabit

September 28, 2012 Amy Guidry Leave a comment

I’ve recently finished another painting in my In Our Veins series. Cohabit is an acrylic on canvas, 6″ wide by 12″ high. In keeping with the series, there are various animals and insects, some being just heads or a bust, as well as those that are alive and some that are not, representing the stages of the life cycle. The cutaway view of the tunnel serves two purposes. One, it illustrates how various species often share dwellings such as tunnels (which is why destroying animal habitats has such a huge impact on the ecosystem). And secondly, it is a reminder that organisms underground- both living and not- affect everything living above ground.

My Exhibitions

Opening Night: Louisiana Voices

September 17, 2012 Amy Guidry Leave a comment

I still can’t get over the amazing turnout at the Hilliard Museum the other night. The opening reception for Louisiana Voices: Six Artists Speak to Us was this past Friday. The exhibit looks great and I will be going back just to finish looking at everything. It was so busy and packed that I did not get to check out all the art. I do have photos to share of the event opening and will be posting more to my website soon. The exhibit is up now through December 8th at the Paul & Lulu Hilliard University Art Museum in Lafayette, LA. Also of note: an exhibition panel discussion will be held on September 29th from 2-4pm.
