Pop-Up Exhibit: Paintings by Amy Burczyk


A pop-up exhibition of paintings by Amy Burczyk will be on display along the First Floor Hallway at Riverviews Artspace for the month of October.

Bio:

Kid, Mother, Grandmother, Artist, Interior Designer (in that order) from Wisconsin. I have a degree in Interior Design and an “Almost” degree in Fine Arts from Mount Mary University in Milwaukee Wisconsin. I ran away to Wonderland, fell down a rabbit hole and ended up in Lynchburg Virginia.

Habits: Googling

Addictions: Hording art supplies and tchotches, color, coffee in the morning before ANYTHING, sketchbooks and their dirty little secrets

Favorite Quote: “If it was never IN style, it can never go OUT”. – Amy Burczyk

Favorite Book(s): Alices’s Adventures In Wonderland, Grimms Bros Fairy Tales and the Complete Library of Nursery Rhymes

If I had Special Powers: To kill a yak from 200yds with ‘mind bullets’, or rather, the power to move you ( I borrowed that from Tenacious D)

My art reflects my approach to life: a child-like sense of wonder, what if and defense. I use whimsy – animals, rhymes, songs and nonsense to cope with ‘adult’ issues, much the way children have done throughout the centuries. It may not match your sofa, but I do hope it makes you think and entertains.
