Amy Canals is an abstract artist and surface/textile designer based in Melbourne, Australia.

Working primarily with acrylic on canvas, she also incorporates spray paint and oil pastel to create vibrant, multi-layered works. Her practice is rooted in a love for colour, texture, and intuitive composition, drawing inspiration from everyday beauty, nature, and her travels around the world.

With a background in textiles & graphic design, Amy brings a keen eye for pattern, balance, and visual storytelling to her art. Her journey back to painting began while studying textile and screen print design, where she rediscovered a deep passion for creative expression through drawing, painting, and digital media.

Amy’s work is defined by bold colours, expressive linework, and striking colour palettes that explore the interplay between structure and spontaneity. Each piece reflects her personal connection to joy, emotion, and the therapeutic power of creativity. Through her art, she invites viewers to pause, reflect, and find moments of happiness and connection in the colourful details of life.
