I have been a live art entertainer for the last eight years with a passion for helping others through the sales of my paintings.I decided to follow my dream by traveling more, create more, visit old friends, make new friends and continue to perform all over the country to help raise money for charitable organizations. I have helped organizations such as the Humane Society, Nine Girls Ask (cancer research), Lab Rescuers, Rady's Children's Hospital and many others. A friend suggested using Couch Surfing to keep traveling cost low, so here I am. Feel free to check out my website www.amyburkman.com.
