Hi, I'm Ami!

I'm a self-taught visual development artist, character designer, producer, and student, based out of Indiana. I've worked for 3 years now in a variety of fields across art. I am incredibly passionate about film and animation; it feels like a second language to me. As a scientist myself, I consider science and technology to be an integrated part of the artistic process.

 In my work, I emphasize a blend of a variety of techniques, often using traditional and digital mediums with 3D software.  I love dolls, toys, and traditional (and not so traditional) sculpture, and I often incorporate it into my design process. I'm also a hobbyist pipeline tool developer, and am comfortable coding in Python, MEL, and VEX. My background provides me with an in-depth understanding of the animation pipeline, from art to tech.

Right now, I am directing Knot This! - an independently animated opensource feature 3D film set to release in 2027, with a team of over 50 artists.

I am currently available for opportunities for work and freelance. If you're interested in working with me, please contact me at artofamiwells@gmail.com.

*Client work is not currently available due to NDAs but will be accessible upon project finalization.
