Meet the Artist
A lifelong observer of nature, creating timeless designs inspired by the beauty of the outdoors.
Hi, I'm Amy.
I believe the most meaningful designs begin with noticing.
Whether I'm photographing wildflowers on a summer walk, creating cyanotypes with real botanicals, or experimenting with botanical impressions, every collection begins with a moment outdoors. Those original pieces become the foundation for wallpaper, paper goods, and home décor designed to bring a sense of calm into everyday spaces.
Rusky Rose began from a desire to slow down and notice the beauty that often goes overlooked. What started as photographing wildflowers and experimenting with cyanotypes has grown into a collection of nature-inspired designs created to bring that same sense of peace into homes.
My hope is simple: to create timeless designs that help people bring the outdoors in.
The Process
Find Inspiration
Every collection begins outdoors, where changing seasons, quiet trails, and overlooked botanicals become the starting point for new ideas.
Gather Nature
Wildflowers, grasses, leaves, and weathered textures are thoughtfully gathered and studied before becoming part of the creative process.
Create Original Artwork
Using cyanotypes, botanical impressions, photography, and mixed media, every collection begins as original artwork before it's transformed into a repeating pattern.
Layer & Explore
Each piece is thoughtfully layered, refined, and explored through different artistic techniques to create rich, organic textures.
Refine Every Detail
Every design is carefully refined to preserve the organic beauty of the original artwork while creating timeless patterns for wallpaper, paper goods, and home décor.
The most meaningful designs begin by simply noticing.
Slideshow
Favorite Season
Late spring, when everything begins to come back to life.
Favorite Place
Minnesota's wooded trails, prairies, and quiet lakes.
Favorite Botanical
Ferns. Their delicate forms appear again and again throughout my work.
My Purpose
Creating a Life Worth Remembering
My greatest inspiration has never been a single flower or photograph. It's the life being lived around them.
My husband and our two children have encouraged me through every collection, every late night, and every new idea. They remind me that the spaces we create become the backdrop for everyday moments that eventually become our favorite memories.
I hope my work not only brings a little more beauty into your home, but also shows my children that it's always worth pursuing something you're passionate about.
