Amy Everhart

Amy Everhart is a contemporary impressionist whose artful use of brush and knife and vibrant palette captivate her audience and have won her a loyal following of collectors. Her work is displayed in public and private collections from California to Australia. Everhart demonstrated a propensity for art at a young age.

At ten, her father hired an artist to serve as her private tutor to provide her with formal instruction in traditional oil painting techniques. Since then, Everhart has studied in California and New York and has been influenced by masters both past and present in the genres of realism and impressionism.

She has spent considerable time in museums in the U.S. and Europe studying the ways in which Degas captured movement and Monet portrayed the natural setting. In contemporary galleries, she has been impacted by Jose Royo's palette and brushwork, Alan Wolton's textures, and the masterful way in which Steve Hanks told stories through his medium.

Throughout her career, Everhart has been inspired by the pioneering work of Mary Cassatt, both as a bold impressionist and a champion for female artists. Everhart now lives in and draws inspiration from the Rocky Mountains.
