About The Artwork

Experience the joy and wonder of play with "Kids Play," an expressive mixed media painting created through a collaboration with the artist's 5-year-old son. Inspired by the abstract expressionist Joan Mitchell, this piece showcases a riot of colors and textures that captures the uninhibited spirit of childhood creativity. As Albert Einstein once said, "Play is the highest form of research," and this painting embodies that idea perfectly. Through playful experimentation with pastels, acrylics, spray paint, and other materials, the artist and their son created a vibrant work that celebrates the value of imaginative exploration and bonding. Part of the "Nothing Wasted" series that champions the reuse of materials, "Kids Play" is a testament to the power of art to bring people together and evoke the beauty of the everyday. Add it to your collection today and let it remind you of the joy of play and the limitless possibilities of creation.

Amy Smith is a self-taught contemporary artist born in New Jersey who moved to Los Angeles in 2005. Inspired by the Street Art movement surrounding Los Angeles, she found mentoring and support within the community. Activism is an important part of her life and influences her work. She incorporates empowering phrases and words in her collages with the intention of creating a conversation to encourage action in a powerful and fun way. In her mixed media portraits, Amy creates hand cut stencils and utilizes recycled fashion magazine pieces. These magazines represent her love of fashion but contempt for excessive consumerism. By ripping these pieces up and creating new powerful work, she aims to offer a decision on choosing your own path of empowerment and leaving what society demands aside. In addition to her canvas work she has been adding neon elements to some pieces on wood exploring a new series of contemporary art.
