Karen Shervey

Karen has called Columbia County home for the past four years and has been an active member of the Columbia Arts Guild for several years. Her artwork has been featured on the Guild wall at Spilt Ink Gallery & Gifts, where she enjoys sharing her creative work with the community.

Before dedicating more time to her artistic pursuits, Karen enjoyed a rewarding 35-year career as a hospital pharmacist with Providence in Portland. Throughout her life, creativity has remained a constant companion. As far back as she can remember, she has been a dabbler in art projects, exploring a variety of mediums and techniques that have shaped her artistic journey over the years.

Outside the studio, Karen is an avid flower gardener and sailor. She crews on a racing sailboat with the St. Helens Sailing Club, competing on the Columbia River. These passions often inspire her artwork and provide a deep connection to the beauty of the natural world.

In recent years, Karen has developed a particular fondness for painting on glass, a medium that allows her to bring vibrant color and light to her work. Flowers are among her favorite subjects. Painting them offers yet another opportunity to appreciate and celebrate their beauty, combining two of her greatest joys: gardening and art.

Through her artwork, Karen hopes to share the simple pleasures and inspiration she finds in nature, creativity, and community.

Little Bright Studio

Amy Nieto-Cruz was born and raised in Mayagüez, Puerto Rico, where she developed an early appreciation for color, light, and the natural beauty that continues to influence her work today. She earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Photography and Filmmaking from the Savannah College of Art and Design, building a strong foundation in visual storytelling, composition, and design.

In 2008, Amy moved to Portland on a whim, embracing a spirit of adventure that has shaped both her life and career. Over the years, she has worn many creative hats, working as a family photographer, handbag designer, art studio manager, film assistant, and in various design-related roles. Photography and design were her primary artistic focus through 2021, when she felt called to return to painting as her main creative practice.

Amy’s work is rooted in the idea of transforming resilience into joy. Through vibrant, expressive floral paintings, she explores beauty, growth, and optimism, often drawing inspiration from sunlight passing through petals, the movement of flowers in the wind, and the ever-changing forms found in nature. Her style embraces intuitive maximalism, balancing energetic, chaotic florals with the structure and harmony of formal color theory. Each piece celebrates abundance, movement, and personality, and the real challenge, she says, is knowing when a flower has developed enough character.

Amy has become an active participant in Portland’s vibrant arts community. She regularly attends local markets, street fairs, and art events throughout the region. In July 2026, she celebrated a significant milestone with her first solo exhibition at Sisters Coffee Co. A regular vendor at the historic Portland Saturday Market, she offers a rotating collection of original artwork. Through her paintings, she invites viewers to find delight in nature’s imperfections and to discover beauty, resilience, and joy in everyday life.
