Amy Stewart Hale is a working professional artist that has owned and operated PennDragon Studios since January 1990. Amy started this company in Chicago nearly 35 years ago. Her early focus became custom interior design paint treatments, murals, and trompe loi.

During that time period, she was privately training as an hand skilled illustrator with Ray Shlemon, Art Director, Chicago Tribune, and Dick Tracy through a mutual sponsor.

After moving to the Atlanta area in 1995, Amy continued to pursue her passion in Art through PennDragon Studios..She moved to Las Vegas in 2011 and Amy's focus is now on building her show resume and creating new works..

Along the way she's developed and mastered many skills including:
Painting (Acrylic, and various Faux-Finish Techniques)
Illustration (Pencil, Colored Pencil, Charcoal, Pen and Ink, Marker, Watercolor, and Airbrush)

Amy is now beginning to explore Computer Graphics and Interactive Multi-Media.

Amy's worked with and apprenticed under many professional artists during her career, including: Jerry Nissen, John and Sue Dutcher, Nancy Bartush, Ray Shleman, William Alexander, Jr., Paul Michael Alexander, William Harris, Sylvia Long, Roger Sawhill, Stanis Kodman, and Berwin Hung.

She values every bit of knowledge that she's found,  received, and continues to gain on this journey of Life and Art.

Amy has always said, " A wish is the foundation of one's goals, attaining those goals are the fulfillment of one's life."

Amy believes an artist’s job is to give in ways that create a better world for people within their family, their community, their state, their nation, and their world…
She is grateful for the ability she has through creation of art, and Amy believes that it is her duty to work toward a better society, by living her truths through her work of donation and public appearances to bring awareness to the issues facing women of domestic violence, and homelessness, and sustainable development/building and community projects.
Amy believes fully in supporting various programs that are working to effect change from a grassroots level for human rights and clean energy and she often  donates both completed art for charitable auction, and a portion of her sales.
