I’m a ceramic artist and artist mentor living on Yuin Country on the Far South Coast of New South Wales, Australia.

I work with visual artists to help them make better work, overcome creative slumps, reconnect with their purpose, and get their work seen and valued, often in ways they hadn’t imagined possible.

And it’s not just the muddy people I work with. Painters, sculptors, photographers, textile artists, woodworkers, illustrators, you name it. Regardless of medium, we are all up against the same challenges, and more often than not, they are the ones we put in our own way. 

Some things have reshaped my life in the most unexpected ways: clay, mentoring, and, most recently, the place I now call home.

My story and why I do this. . .

Make Exceptional Work

A group program focused purely on the work itself. For artists who know their work needs to be stronger to get the opportunities they want and are looking for new input, structure and a path to get there.

Fresh Eyes 

A multi-day, group writing experience for artists wanting to gain greater insight into their work and themselves, find an easier way into writing (stop hating and avoiding it!) and find solutions to the things that are getting them stuck. Short morning sessions each day, writing alone, together.

Evolve

A 6-month mentoring program designed to gain new skills in artwork development and resolution, presenting your work to new audiences and gaining greater visibility and recognition. A mix of one-on-one monthly mentoring with Amy and weekly group sessions.

The International Artist

A completely one-on-one six-session mentoring program working through every step of an artist residency application, from researching the right one for you, to hitting send. A very specific program for artists who are aspiring to do an artist residency (or another one) and want expert support to give it the best shot possible.
