Amy Ruth

Wall Art

My mum tells me that I was practically born with a pencil in my hand.

My passion for drawing and art led me to a professional career in urban design and landscape architecture—but as I progressed in my career, the pencil was traded in for a computer. I found myself missing the freedom and creativity of making art by hand.

So in early 2024, I picked up a paintbrush and a pen again and started Vibrant Places Art - a return to the joyful, imaginative practice that first sparked my love of place and design.

Amy was a finalist in the Revival Emerging Art Prize 2025 and 2026, received highly commended at the Studio on Brunswick Independent Visions Art Prize in 2026, and winner of Pine Rivers Show Non-Traditional Art winner in 2024.
