Hi,

I am Amy Nelipovich, a native Texan born in Houston Texas.  I grew up with an appreciation and passion for art.  While growing up my parents exposed us to all kinds of creativity.....drawing, painting, clay, glass blowing, jewelry making, museums, music, camps, classes.  The whole house was filled with art, music, and creativity. I am so grateful for this. After living in various states across the U.S. I have come back to my Texas roots to start a business.  Based in Austin, I have started Blue Sky Art on Wheels, a mobile art gallery. Dedicated and showcasing original unique art created by Central Texas artists and can been seen at Hill Country Wineries, Breweries and Distilleries. Check our calendar for schedule.

I want to share with others unique, fun, and accomplished art that otherwise may never be seen. I believe this is a great connection for both the artists and customer.  Art is something that truly speaks to each person in so many different ways.

I remember the first piece of art I bought, I was right out of college and there was an art show on a grassy medium in Beverly Hills, CA. I had very little money, but I found the perfect unique piece that I had to have. I always had a passion for art.

I was inspired on an annual road trip to visit Grandma in Oshkosh, Wisconsin in 2014. This was a trip taken many times with friends and family and with over four hours in the car there are always fun and interesting conversations. This particular year the question “what would you do if you won the lottery?” came up. Immediately I said “I want to buy an RV/trailer that I could drive from city to city to find undiscovered artists. I would take the art and set it up in the RV/trailer and drive around to sell it.”

Years later here I am, and I am so grateful. (No, I have not won the lottery “yet” LOL) I am living my dream and I am honored to support local Texas artists, showcasing their original art at various venues in The Hill Country.

While enjoying your favorite local beverage you can shop my gallery filled with local treasures. You will discover items to hang on your walls representing many mediums, wood, metal, acrylic, oils, watercolor, mixed mediums, and photography ranging from $25 - $500. (with a few pieces above $500 that I could not pass up!)

Every piece of art I own has a story and a memory that puts a smile on my face and warms my heart, this is what I want to create for others. What makes art good is passion – passion from the artist, that’s what I want to share with the world.
