ABOUT THE ARTIST

Hi, and welcome! Have we met? I'm Chris Ams.

I'm an illustrator, fine artist, and native Michigander, currently based in Beacon, NY.

​

I specialize in book illustration, poster design, and entertainment art, but my awe of the natural world and the celebration of the creative spirit are the embers that ignite and inspire me the most. I love to cross boundaries and genres through the use of both traditional and digital techniques. 

Regardless of the medium used, I always feel the most at home when I'm exploring, making things, and breathing life into ideas in ways that excite and inspire.
