Amy Houweling: Artist & Designer
Who I am
Designer by Trade, Artist by Heart
My journey began with a deep fascination for physical materials and traditional art forms. Years spent in the studio, experimenting with pigments and textures, laid the foundation for a career that seamlessly blends fine art with graphic design principles.
This dual passion informs every article and review, ensuring insights are not just theoretical but grounded in the tactile reality of making. My work shares the honest realities of creative practice, from the triumphs of a breakthrough to the quiet persistence required for daily effort.
