Amy Mears

I am a 25 year old artist based in Guildford, living with cerebral palsy, epilepsy and autism. My journey into the world of art began in 2019 when I joined Artventure Trust in Guildford www.art-venture.co.uk. They provided a relaxed supportive space in which I could experiment with different art styles and mediums without pressure. It was there that I discovered my voice as an artist. I found that art gave me a way to channel my ideas and express my unique perspective.

I love painting with vibrant colours. Much of my work is created using vivid acrylics, however I also enjoy painting with ink and watercolour, especially if I need to include more detail or softer tones. I take inspiration from my travels and experiences and love experimenting with new techniques and art forms and learning about different artistic styles and artists.

In April 2026, I was very proud that Artventure presented my first solo exhibition at the Lightbox Gallery in Woking. I was also so excited and proud that DAiSY nominated me for the Surrey Artist of the Year 2026 with my work exhibited in New Ashgate Gallery in Farnham during September and October 2026.

For me, art is part of my life and a way to connect with others and share the brightness I see in the world. I am proud of the unique style I have created and excited for future projects.
