did a whole series of these 

mythical travel paintings this week - 

love the idea of some strange and maybe

a bit surreal 

brigadoon or shangri la.

there i go again - traveling in my head

mythical travel i call it

places that sort of exist

but are more brigadoon than reality

somewhere in northern british isles

bridges, castles, moody skies

rocky shorelines

feels mythic and poetic to me.

an ammonite, somewhat abstracted

from on old photo i took

evidence of our collective history

weighty

spiraling inward

love the simple ancient symbols -

circle, triangle, square

they transcend time and culture

artist in residence tour

to all those interested in my work - 

i will be embarking on a year long artist in residency tour 

around the world in may and will be having a big sale of 

my paintings in mid - april at my studio in boulder, co. 

if you wish to buy any of these paintings online, it would be 

best to purchase them before my sale. You can contact 

me by email at amy@amyclay.com. 

i will be starting a new blog/website to track my progress

as I develop my new work based on the places i will be

working and living in. I will post the blog/site as soon as

it is up and running, hopefully in mid-april. this blog will be

on hold at that time, and i will not be doing my "daily" 

paintings in the same way for awhile. 

thanks to all of you who have been following my blog and

i hope you will visit my new site and 

follow my yearlong expedition ~
