Adriana Maria Pineda
Hola! Soy Adriana,
a first-generation American artist, author, and creative from Miami, Florida. Raised in a vibrant, multicultural environment shaped by my Venezuelan and Nicaraguan heritage, I’ve always been drawn to the richness of Latin culture and its expression through color and storytelling.
Now living in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and raising a family of my own, motherhood has become a significant part of my artistic journey. As a mom, I’ve found new layers of inspiration and purpose in my work, using art as both a form of self-expression and a way to connect with others navigating similar life experiences.
As the founder of Art by AMP, my work is influenced by this cultural background, bringing together bright, bold palettes and themes that reflect both my roots and the world around me. From paintings to live event artwork, I aim to create pieces that inspire connection and joy. My art has been showcased in local galleries and businesses, including through my partnership with Swoon, a local juice bar, where I design custom pieces and host live painting events.
In addition to visual art, my love for storytelling led me to self-publish two children’s books: Donde Va el Sol / Where the Sun Goes, a bilingual book inspired by my passion for language and culture, and The ABCs of Arkansas Birds, a nature-focused coloring and workbook that fosters creativity and curiosity in young minds. There are many more books and works to come as I continue exploring new ways to share stories through both art and writing.
With every piece of art and writing, I aim to celebrate beauty, inspire connection, and share stories that resonate across cultures. Whether you’re here to explore my artwork, discover my books, or collaborate on a custom project, I’m excited to share my creative world with you.
