Meet Amy Ann Russell

We were lucky to catch up with Amy Ann Russell recently and have shared our conversation below.

Hi Amy Ann, really happy you were able to join us today and we’re looking forward to sharing your story and insights with our readers. Let’s start with the heart of it all – purpose. How did you find your purpose?

In my 20’s and 30’s I literally explored every other possibility or avenue I could take in life besides being an artist. All these experiences brought me back to the same conclusion, that being a creative is what I am. It is where I experience working in a flow state and is truly what lights me up.

Great, so let’s take a few minutes and cover your story. What should folks know about you and what you do?

My journey in art and photography is deeply intertwined with yoga, meditation, and nature. This lead to the creation of my brand AAE. RUSSELL, and Visual Meditation Art© in 2019 together forging a new industry of intentionally healing artwork. This art with a purpose blends art and science, and aims to uplift and energize spaces transforming ordinary places into enhanced innovative environments.

If you had to pick three qualities that are most important to develop, which three would you say matter most?

Working as a fly fishing and rafting guide taught me many metaphors about life that continue to translate into my experiences today. Discipline and the mind body connection developed through practices such as martial arts or yoga is essential for building a foundation of mindfulness and how you react in unexpected situations. Also trying AND failing teaches you more than success, but it will build you the capacity to embrace the wins in life when you receive them.

One of our goals is to help like-minded folks with similar goals connect and so before we go we want to ask if you are looking to partner or collab with others – and if so, what would make the ideal collaborator or partner?

I am currently seeking a scientist to collaborate with who specializes in neurology and or meditation. My work is a new industry of scientifically proven healing artwork for intentional use in interior design, hospitals, therapy offices, and personal use. I believe there is so much more that we can do to foster our energetic and mental health on a simple level, and I am driven to pursue this.
