:: Monday's inspired human : Amy Flynn ::

Right about now it is beginning to seem like a college reunion around here at P&P! I am featuring yet another Skidmore College alumni friend, Amy Flynn. I was fortunate enough to go to school with some pretty talented people, and I promise you will in the future be meeting even more "Skiddies's" as I continue to interview talented folks from all over the world...

Amy is an artist and her style is very loose and the style is organic and free, I love how I feel like I could look at one of her pieces for a long time and always continue to see something new... Blogger world, meet Amy Flynn!
