Creative Arts Highlight: Amy Komar, artist

Amy is an artist living in beautiful Fairbanks, Alaska. She has had galleries in Arizona, Germany, Texas, and of course, Alaska. I have never met Amy in person, but I feel a connection with her because her art speaks to me in a very moving way.

Amy, Artist in the Arctic

Amy is so creative and fluid, with all sorts of delicious ideas always spinning around. Her creations are uplifting and reflective, and full of life and color. I am always excited to see what she will come up with next.

Here is one of the first paintings I saw that really just grabbed me:

Year of the Dragon

And she has an etsy shop that is full of these little gems:

Shaman Stick/Painted Beaver Stick


Her stones have been gathered locally and from all over the world, and I know that she gives careful consideration when choosing each one.

...and there are also her trademark painted birch hearts
