Maclean, Tim. "Amy Guidry- What the Future May Hold- Artist Interview." Wow x Wow, September 5, 2017
"Whether approaching us with subliminal suggestions or hitting us hard with her intentions, Guidry’s imagery never fails to leave lasting impressions which engage us both emotionally and on a deeply cerebral level. Mixing photorealism with the surrealistic language of dreams, Guidry’s highly effective and immensely personal symbolism is conveyed with sophistication, which elevates its potency and sensitivity."

View Article"Humanness" by Rochelle Belsito, American Art Collector Magazine, October 2014, p. 146
"Dichotomies of human existence- such as life and death, and our relationship to nature- are among the topics that arise in the artwork of Amy Guidry and Jessica Goldfinch. While strikingly different in imagery and technique, the artists paint recognized subjects to convey these psychological concepts in compassionate, sensitive, and thought-provoking ways."

"Balancing on the edge of both photorealism and pop surrealism, American artist, Amy Guidry paints nature with an intricate hand and an inventive mind. Drawing on various influential subject matter as varied as dreams and C.S. Lewis novel characters, Guidry's world of strange, human-like and captivating characters of animals lends the viewer an unusual insight in to her surrealist yet photorealist painted world – check out the skeletal characters contrasted with the intricately painted rock formations as testament."
"Beauty and the Beasts in the New Realm," Reggie Michael Rodrigue, louisianaesthetic, July 22, 2012
"...Despite all these correspondences, Guidry isn't just repeating history, however. There's a new sensibility to these paintings that probably could not have been registered in Tanning's world of the 1940's. Whereas, Tanning painted herself and her heroines in slightly ominous domestic settings, Guidry paints herself in a forest of birch trees floating in a white void. In symbolic terms, Guidry has created a tabula rasa ready for a new investigation into what it means to be a Western woman in the 21st Century."
