Come on in...

Painter.  Photographer.  Texture chaser.

I'm Amy Baxter, and I use images—whether from a lens or a brush—to capture nature, emotion, and the fleeting moments in between.

My work has been described as “quiet elegance” and “still but alive.” I’m drawn to birds, rocks, trees, water, reflections, shadows, light, zen and chaos—and the depth hiding underneath it all.  It’s complicated.

Photographic Impressionism

I’ve been chasing photographs for more than 40 years, but somewhere along the way I started chasing texture, too. I layer my photographs with textures found in the world around me—canvas, stone, walls, clouds, whatever catches my eye—to create images that feel a little less like photographs and a little more like memories.

Painting lets me go somewhere photography can’t. I start with what I see, then let colour, movement and a little bit of chaos take over. These aren't meant to reproduce a place exactly—they’re about what the place felt like.
