Amy graduated with a BA (Hons) in Contemporary Fine Art from the City of Glasgow College 2024. The skills she gained in composition, colour, and materials continue to shape the way creates each piece.

Amy has built a diverse portfolio that includes portraits, pets, wildlife, landscapes, seascapes, still life’s, murals, and other subjects.

She works in a range of mediums, including acrylic, watercolour, charcoal, pastel, pencil, and ink, selecting the one best suited to the subject and style.

Much of Amy’s work is commissioned. She loves working with clients to bring their ideas to life as finished artwork.

Whether a portrait, a pet, a favourite place, or a subject chosen to mark a special occasion, Amy approaches every piece thoughtfully. Amy’s aim is to create artwork that combines technical skill and sensitivity, resulting in original pieces that hold meaning.

No Borders Theatre returns to the East Kilbride Arts Centre with a bold new staging of A Midsummer Night’s Dream, inspired by the magic and mystery of Scottish mythology. Set in a wild, enchanted landscape where ancient spirits linger and mischief stirs beneath the moonlight, Shakespeare’s beloved comedy takes on a distinctly mythic atmosphere.

As tangled lovers wander into a world of trickery and transformation, the play reminds us that “the course of true love never did run smooth.” Blending Shakespeare’s wit with a haunting folkloric spirit, this production promises an evening of romance, chaos, and otherworldly enchantment.

To book please call East Kilbride Arts Centre on 01355 261000.

Cost: £12.00 / £10.00 concession (subject to £1.50 transaction fee)
