Aimee Bungard is an artist living and working in rural Southwestern, Pa. She decided in second grade that she wanted to be an artist and that was that. She lists Vincent Van Gogh, Auguste Rodin, Frida Khalo, Giacometti and Shel Silverstein as her earliest and ongoing inspirations. The search for a visual language with which she can illustrate the dialogue between spirit and physicality is her ongoing drive. Working primarily in acrylic and ink she is exploring these themes with a botanical leaning.
