Amy Krimsier Sterling Art Display in the Library

BIO

Amy Krimsier Sterling is a storyteller who creates visual art in a variety of mediums, capturing life’s many elements through printmaking, ceramics, watercolor, oil, and anything else she can get her hands on.

Much of Amy’s work is created in the public sphere, whether it’s documenting strangers’ fleeting moments in a sketchbook, or channeling personal daydreams into physical objects created from assorted materials. Amy’s art seeks to change frequencies and is often focused on capturing natural phenomena, such as the colors of light and the movement of water.

As an arts educator in Nashville, Amy finds great joy in passing her own inspiration to others and seeks to help students see things in a way they had not before. Her greatest desire is to make waves… and then swim in them.

CAPTURED PAUSES

In this collection of paintings, Amy Krimsier Sterling explores the limits of color, space, and memory as she seeks to record the immeasurable, often breathtaking, pauses in life that exist between the larger, more immediate moments we tend to prioritize. Translating these intangible experiences to paper and canvas with acrylic, oil, and watercolor pigments, Amy seeks to share visions that delight us as small details from everyday life take on a captivating, dream-like quality. With “Captured Pauses,” the ordinary becomes extraordinary.
