Amy Boardman Art

Bringing everyday beauty to life through art that celebrates nature and life’s little moments.

Inspiring gratitude, joy, and hope—one painting at a time, with my studio sidekick, Ki-Lani!

My paintings are inspired by the natural beauty of the places I’ve lived—including my current home in Alabama—the coastal charm of the South, and the locations that have shaped my journey. Rooted in Huntsville and guided by a love for nature and faith, each piece is a visual reflection of stories, landscapes, life’s quiet moments, and the world around us—evoking gratitude and reflection. Through my artwork, I hope to invite others to see the world through a lens of wonder and gratefulness—bringing hope, joy, and meaningful reflection, one painting at a time.

Rooted in faith, each piece is created to bring warmth and to encourage gratitude, hope, and joy into your home and heart—reminding us of the deeper beauty that surrounds us.
