  • Artist Amy Lay lives on the ranch her great-grandparents homesteaded near Union, Oregon. From this remote location in the southern Wallowa Mountains, Amy draws inspiration from the rugged country, livestock and wildlife that surround her. Amy paints from memory in a loose, non-traditional style that draws audiences from all over North America into an intimate relationship with the wide-open western landscape she has known her whole life.

    Stunning work! I love her use of space and composition. But the best is the subject matter and color! Amy has a gift and talent!

    How refreshing. A real artist. My hat is off to you, Amy. I'm doing something similar in the desert. Yes, the solitude opens the creative doors. Magical.

    Beautiful work, country and animals. I especially love the painting of the three howling wolves, 6:34! Wishing Amy continued success. Thank you for sharing her journey with us.

    God bless you girl. You work gave me such sweet joy. I’m almost 80, and a portrait artist, or was until my eyes failed me, at least for detailed work. I feel encouraged by you somehow. Thank you.

    Amy, your work is refreshingly beautiful.. please keep it up.
    I say that because Im a self taught realistic oil painter, and I was told I'd amount to nothing.
    The opposite happened.. unknown artist selling for $50 000.❤ And may God bless you.

    I studied the anatomy, which helped me know which way the fur, scales or feathers would fall. I had to quit for sometime when in my 20's after someone had stolen all my art supplies, sketch books, with notes about different plants, trees and wildlife. I drop out of College, because I needed money to pay for my courses, transportation, and supplies , plus pay for the roof over my young son and I. NOW I am 75. and time to spare, so I pick up were I left off, but on a slim fixed income. Making it hard to enter any shows, and pay for all the EXTRA HIDDEN COSTS..
