About the Artist

 All art work has been created by Amy S. Petrik. Since 2007, she’s been a trademarked licensed artist for Carousel Checks and owns her own business called Wet ink Wisdom®. She has been a registered artist since 2008.

 For the past 20 years, Amy has been catering to children nationwide who are bullied, in a Stage IV illness or has survived a suicide attempt with her whimsical art.

A few years ago, she started the Kindness Project where she selects random groups and draws/shares her writing skills with messages of hope. Amy is a former newspaper reporter and won two South Dakota Newspaper Association writing awards about Human Interests.

In The Midst of Chaos

 

Most days we sit side by side in the lunch room never speaking and equally exhausted. And every day, we part by wishing each other a great afternoon. @ Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Me at My Best

New purchases, compliments of Hobby Lobby today. New watercolor instruments to try [never used before] and postcard sized watercolor paper.

And me at my best. My art therapy desk...

Yes, I accepted the project. Yes, I volunteered my madz skills to bring forward MY KINDNESS PROJECT to the forefront. No, I am not getting anything in return but my own happiness to sharing my art with others. Thanks for looking, Amy

Happy To Help Raise Morale

I was asked to help raise morale at my place of employment. I will be in charge of the birthday/anniversary board in the lunch room...

Meet the Juhls

 

Have you ever met someone and you immediately clicked with them? Like within seconds....

This is how I feel about Aly. Then I met her husband, Matt on my 53rd birthday party. And he allowed me to make him a slushy margarita.... These humans are my kind of humans.

Tough As Nails

She's blunt, like me. She's a hard worker, like me. We share an occasional giggle... then get back to work.

Here's My Ultimate Passion

For my new followers....this is my passion, my one true escape from reality. Everything is drawn with Sharpies and painted with watercolor paints on watercolor paper. I lost my mojo last year and today, I am testing the waters.

Thank you for your ongoing support and love of my whimsical art work.

Stay tuned, Amy S. Petrik
