“Intertwine” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 4″ x 4″; Sold; (c) Amy Guidry 2018
I’ve just finished a new painting in my In Our Veins series. The title is Intertwine and it is an acrylic on canvas, 4″ wide by 4″ high. I really wanted to paint a pair of bighorn sheep for this one so I had to alter the horns a bit, plus added curly hair. You can view this piece as well as other paintings in the series on my website: https://amyguidry.com/intertwine.html.
“Delicate” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 5″ x 5″; Sold; (c) Amy Guidry 2018
I’m happy to reveal my finished painting Delicate. It is an acrylic on canvas, 5″ wide by 5″ high. This piece was created for Gristle Art Gallery’s insect-themed “Killing Jar” exhibition which is going on now through November 24th. Delicate features a stag beetle whose body is patterned in lace. Insects are often feared, but the lace body serves as a reminder to their diminutive size and delicate beauty. You can view the painting on my website here: https://amyguidry.com/delicate.html.

Sneak peek at a little piece in progress for an upcoming exhibition. This is the initial sketch before I take it to canvas. Full size is 5″ wide by 5″ high.
This is actually only the second time I’ve ever worked on a stag beetle. The first was in my painting Symbiotic. See if you can spot him.

“Renew” by Amy Guidry; Acrylic on canvas; 6″ x 6″; SOLD; (c) Amy Guidry 2018
I’m happy to reveal my new painting for Cactus Gallery’s The Revival exhibition. It’s titled Renew and is an acrylic on canvas, 6″ wide by 6″ high. The theme of the show deals with life, death, rebirth, and regrowth through natural imagery which is very much in line with my work. Renew is in keeping with my ongoing series, In Our Veins, which explores the connections of all life forms and the cycle of life. Each animal, and each plant, serves a role in the life cycle, together forming the delicate balance of nature. The human third eye in this piece refers to our connection to all of nature, while the vines refer to the cyclical process of sustenance, the transfer of energy, and renewal. You can view Renew on my website here: https://amyguidry.com/renew.html. For sales, contact the gallery director Sandra Mastroianni at sandra@cactusgalleryla.com or 323-801-8669.
