About Amy:

Amy Dover’s images tackle the dark side of nature, the hidden world. Beautifully executed in graphite pencil she shows, man, bird and beast in all its devastating beauty.

Inspired by music, poetry and folklore, she tackles subjects, like death, humiliation, and deceit. Characters of cannibalistic crows, humiliated bears, and the innocence and loss of a dead sparrow.
A dark and often macabre narrative runs through every piece, inviting the audience to read in to it.

Since graduating in the summer of 2008, Amy has exhibited in both group and solo shows, all over the country, as well as gaining international press.

Janet Jackson looked amazing in her bold crop cut just a few months ago, but recently she stepped out at the 'Liaisons Au Louvre II' Charity Gala with long wavy locks. We're not sure if Ms. Jackson is wearing a wig or a weave, but it's a dramatic change that suits her. Long or short, natural or relaxed, real of fake, you gotta have fun switching up your hair.

Remember when Kelly Brook got an abortion and pretended it was a miscarriage so people wouldn’t think she was a baby killer, but instead would sympathize with her, offering their condolences, when she really just didn’t want to lose her figure after spending close to two decades to finally get noticed and hit the c-list….She probably realizes that she can have kids in a few years, but for now, she’s gonna just fully absorb herself in what she’s made for herself…kinda thing…

I prefer when she’s covered in lipstick, naked, vagina exposed, but I’m sure that brings up too many horrible memories of her toilet that fateful day her baby left her…..

This HiRISE image shows spectacular layering of light-toned material in a part of Valles Marineris called Candor Chasma. The light-toned layered material was likely deposited when there was water in the Chasma. Many of the light-toned deposits within Valles Marineris contain sulfates (salts rich in sulfur) that formed when acidic water evaporated. There are also many faults visible in the image that cut through the layered material, indicating that after the rocks were deposited they underwent stress that caused them to crack and shift in position. Some of the folding visible in the light-toned material resulted from slower movements of the rocks rather than the quicker movements that created the faults. The darker material is aeolian-derived and can be rippled. Written by: Cathy Weitz

This glowing emerald nebula seen by NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope is reminiscent of the glowing ring wielded by the superhero Green Lantern. In the comic books, the diminutive Guardians of the Planet "Oa" forged his power ring, but astronomers believe rings like this are actually sculpted by the powerful light of giant "O" stars. O stars are the most massive type of star known to exist. Named RCW 120, this region of hot gas and glowing dust can be found in the murky clouds encircled by the tail of the constellation Scorpius. The ring of dust is actually glowing in infrared colors that our eyes cannot see, but show up brightly when viewed by Spitzer's infrared detectors. At the center of this ring are a couple of giant stars whose intense ultraviolet light has carved out the bubble, though they blend in with other stars when viewed in infrared. The green ring is where dust is being hit by winds and intense light from the massive stars. The green color represents infrared light coming from tiny dust grains called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These small grains have been destroyed inside the bubble. The red color inside the ring shows slightly larger, hotter dust grains, heated by the massive stars. This bubble is far from unique. Just as the Guardians of "Oa" have selected many beings to serve as Green Lanterns and patrol different sectors of space, Spitzer has found that such bubbles are common and an can be found around O stars throughout our Milky Way galaxy. The small objects at the lower right area of the image may themselves be similar regions seen at much greater distances across the galaxy. Rings like this are so common in Spitzer's observations that astronomers have even enlisted the help of the public to help them find and catalog them all. Anyone interested in joining the search as a citizen scientist can visit "The Milky Way Project," part of the "Zooniverse" of public astronomy projects, at http://www.milkywayproject.org/ . RCW 120 can be found slightly above the flat plane of our galaxy, located toward the bottom of the picture. The green haze seen here is the diffuse glow of dust from the galactic plane. This is a three-color composite that shows infrared observations from two Spitzer instruments. Blue represents 3.6-micron light and green shows light of 8 microns, both captured by Spitzer's infrared array camera. Red is 24-micron light detected by Spitzer's multiband imaging photometer.
