Abi Amstutz-Spencer, a Peoria native and homeschool graduate, has long been intrigued by the patterns of nature. Flora and fauna shapes and lines sneak into each piece she makes. Watercolor, and the lack of complete control an artist can have with it, appeals to her soft, bright style and is frequently the effect she uses to finish her ink illustrations and pencil designs. Creating Art, whether with paint or with words, is her meditation. Abi also works as a yoga instructor, podcast host, and is a college student at Illinois Central College.
