✨ Hey! I’m Amy Challis. ✨

I’m an illustrator based in Savannah, Georgia that loves watercolor and botanical-focused art. I was born in Delray Beach, Florida, raised by a prolific painter mother and surrounded by her vivid gardens. My abstract paintings and detailed illustrations capture the textures and shapes of our surroundings. Joyful art helps me navigate life with a sense of playfulness through the chaotic twisting and turning of the seasons.

I received my BFA from SCAD in 2016 and originally worked in copywriting and content. I became passionate about helping small businesses tell their stories, and I was exposed to an inspiring network of people who followed their truths. This fueled me to return to my deep roots of painting. As I bring my own story to life, I hope to help others unlock their creative passions.

I am currently a resident artist at Dreamhouse Studios, where I teach approachable watercolor workshops and craft nights. You can also find my work in local stores around Savannah including Superbloom and Starland Strange.
