Dr. Amy Leigh Wicks

I'm Joanna and art has been a natural part of my life. I have been working as a graphic designer for eight years. I have designed many book covers, printings, postcards, posters etc. I have always been fascinated by music, dance, film, graphics, colors, words, images. In 2019 I took part in Creativity Workshops led by Theresa Dedmon and experienced the power of God’s love through art. After that, I started run my own Creativity Workshops, Prophetic Art Courses, Events and lead people to transformation through various creative expressions of art. I helped many people to enter into a new way of communication with God. I also wrote my first ebook - "Creativity comes from God". In 2021, the random person gave me a Word about me painting and selling prophetic arts. The same year I started to paint and sell my artworks. I believe that prophetic art contains the anointing to heal, set free, restore and transform mind and heart. It is not about perfection, but connection with the Greatest Artist - God. We all have creative DNA. My desire and passion is to bring heaven into people’ lives, houses, streets, schools, hospitals etc. and show God's Lavish Love. Every time I seek God’s guidance and ideas how to create new things. I love experiment with a variety of media, texture and materials. Every painting is based on the specific Bible Verse and it is intended to lead to deeper revelation of God’s heart.

I always knew I was creative, but I compared my artistic skills to others and came to the conclusion that I wasn’t artistic. That is until I did heart healing through Biblically-based counseling and discovering more of Father God’s heart for me. A piece of me came to life that I didn’t realize existed. In the middle of this time, my young son started having unexplained seizures and it was such a hard season. Around that same time, I discovered abstract art through fluid acrylics. One of the first paintings I created seemed like a failure to me. I hung it on the wall and to my surprise, Holy Spirit spoke to me through it. He reminded me of a prophetic word I had been given about Isaiah 43:18-19, “rivers in the desert.” My painting was white and cracked, just like a desert ground, and blues, greens and golds ran through it, just like a river. It was this incredible invitation to partner with God in my creativity, and I said “yes!” I started painting as a way to worship and process what was going on with my son and life. As I began to share my paintings on social media others were moved by them and began to inquire about purchasing them. Now, I am more than 3 years into this painting adventure as a self-employed artist (and my son is seizure-free)! My paintings are inspired by my relationship with Jesus, my life experiences, and my appreciation for nature. The one-of-a-kind pieces that I create are filled with movement, detail, and joy. Liquid colors frozen in time, my art is a representation of the beauty of life. My family and I have lived in Tennessee for 5 years. As a southern girl, native to North Georgia, I love to adventure outside with my husband, who is also a full-time artist, and our 3 boys, enjoying the beauty of the outdoors and having fun discovering together! I love getting my hands messy while I spend time in the studio. I’ve developed my creative voice over years of experimenting with different paints and materials, playing, and finding that perfect balance of fun and sophistication. I specialize in statement pieces to change the atmosphere of a space, evoking feelings of joy and peace. It’s an honor for my work to be collected in homes and stores across the country, and showcased at the Artificers Gallery.

Your story coming soon...

I began painting in 2020 when everyone was locked inside from COVID. Amidst a dark and uncertain time, I found light and hope. Painting became not only my worship, but how I heard from God. Since then, I’ve continued to paint, not just for myself, but for others. My desire is that with each painting I create, they would bring hope, joy, love, and encouragement to all that see them.
