Amys Story

I am a UK artist based in Portsmouth on the South Coast of England where I graduated with a BA Honours in Fine Art from Portsmouth University. My passion for art started at a young age and has continued to grow throughout my career.

Much of my work over the past 15 years has been creating bespoke, intimate, hand drawn pencil portraits. Primarily using graphite pencil on high quality Bristol board paper.

I strive to capture as much detail as possible from an image to give a photo realistic quality to my drawings. I make every piece of my artwork individual and special. Putting a contemporary twist on the traditional themes of portraiture.

I have also completed commissions for unique pieces within specific parameters for local restaurants. Working across a number of mediums including pencil, mixed media, paint and collage. I love to explore texture, layers and detail.

My future aspiration is to expand my body of work and help in making art accessible to everyone.
