Edith Garcia

"My work is influenced by everyday life as well as by growing up in a society that uses the hybridization of humans throughout its history". I think that Edith Garcia's work would be relevant to Amy's work as she in her own sense is making her own "Contemporary monsters" with her human and animal forms like Edith's.
 
"For me my work is a way to record my unique individual experiences throughout my lifetime, depicting everyday occurrences and past experiences, addressing contemporaneous issues specific to the human condition". Amy might like this quote as she likes to express her quirky personality through her work, for some of her figures are quite humorous a reflection of her personality which is what Garcia also represents in her work in many ways.
