About The Artwork
“LIBERTÉ” (acrylic on canvas/120x80/2013) “LET ME DANCE ON AIR LIKE THE WIND LET ME TOUCH THE SKY LIKE A BIRD LET ME FEEL THE SEA LIKE A FISH LET ME FLOW LIKE WATER” “On my school notebooks On my desk and on the trees On the sands of snow I write your name On the pages I have read On all the white pages Stone, blood, paper or ash I write your name On the images of gold On the weapons of the warriors On the crown of the king I write your name On the jungle and the desert On the nest and on the brier On the echo of my childhood I write your name On all my scarves of blue On the moist sunlit swamps On the living lake of moonlight I write your name On the fields, on the horizon On the birds’ wings And on the mill of shadows I write your name On each whiff of daybreak On the sea, on the boats On the demented mountaintop I write your name On the froth of the cloud On the sweat of the storm On the dense rain and the flat I write your name On the flickering figures On the bells of colors On the natural truth I write your name On the high paths On the deployed routes On the crowd-thronged square I write your name On the lamp which is lit On the lamp which isn’t On my reunited thoughts I write your name On a fruit cut in two Of my mirror and my chamber On my bed, an empty shell I write your name On my dog, greathearted and greedy On his pricked-up ears On his blundering paws I write your name On the latch of my door On those familiar objects On the torrents of a good fire I write your name On the harmony of the flesh On the faces of my friends On each outstretched hand I write your name On the window of surprises On a pair of expectant lips In a state far deeper than silence I write your name On my crumbled hiding-places On my sunken lighthouses On my walls and my ennui I write your name On abstraction without desire On naked solitude On the marches of death I write your name And for the want of a word I renew my life For I was born to know you To name you....LIBERTY”... ~Paul Eluard (French Poet from Paris 1895-1952)

~ Professional Fine Artist ~ The Netherlands "My Life of Extremes; I paint the lives of "Clochards & Royalty"... Born in San Francisco, California, out of a Dutch traditional artistic family, Amy Polling has also French blood running through her veins! She lived in various countries in the world and considers herself as an "European citizen with an American Topping". She gets her inspiration from her own life experiences and through her early travels around the world, where she came in contact with people from all sorts of backgrounds & cultures; the Bedouin, Clochards & Royality.. Amy feels especially drawn to people with a tremendous Passion for Life and who possess a charismatic enlightenment; "the Bohemian" and "the Elite", such as, Musicians, Dancers, Pierrot's...people, who have experienced "Life" from all corners and yet kept "grounded" with their "Being" and their Inner Strenght...and, who still dare to dream their dreams.. In her paintings there is a strong influence of her theatrical background: a sense of Drama, Poetry and Music. She paints Masculine with Passion, and Feminine with Sensuality, Serenity and Mystique.. After her 5 year's studies at the Royal Art Academy in The Hague, The Netherlands, Amy "eloped" to Paris to start a career as a Fashion Designer for "Sonia Rykiel". Also, she has worked as a Theatrical Costume Designer in major Musical and Opera Productions for a number of years. Her creative abilities in Theatre always took her to many different countries. Although, Amy has been painting all her life, it is since 2006, that she followed her heart and changed a successful career, for the career of a Professional Fine Artist; with an unique and recognizable style and oeuvre. "I believe that Art can put down many borders & bridges, and reach beyond horizons; bring all cultures back together in Peace & Harmony...and, reach out to the hearts of all people".. "My paintings are my Identity; the woman who is looking for her self awareness & own idendity, who is touched by life's experiences and has become aware of all her endless possibilities and her authentic freedom. My works are short expressive stories, which carry the message of Love, Hope, Pain, Passion and Dreams.. Amy has exhibited her work in: the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Monaco, Italy, Dubai and the US. Also, does she work on commission for private clients, banks and company's.
