Our story.
AMor Rustic Arts is the industry leader in original pebble art designs here in Northern Ireland. We provide handmade gifts made from pebbles and other found/recycled material to both retail and wholesale sectors worldwide.
Our aim is to create unique and inspiring handmade gifts that tell our stories and give us comfort.
I strive to achieve warmth and emotion from cold hard pebbles and other often disregarded and insignificant items with thought out space and placement. I want people to feel the passion and difference in my creations, that it is so much more than just sticking pebbles onto paper, like many of the other pebble art you see.
Using the humble pebble as a medium is so special in creating my designs, as each pebble has it’s own silent story to tell of it’s incredible journey through the vast ocean, getting tossed and turned for thousands of years until it becomes the exact shape and size that I need for my creations.
When a pebble becomes a piece of my art it goes on a further journey, bringing joy into people’s homes, to tell our stories and give us comfort.

Artists Bio
Anita Morrison (nae Woods) was born in 84. When she could hold a pencil she was drawing and colouring everyday, and was constantly creating art out of leaves and twigs and making things with toilet roll tubes and coloured paper or what ever else she could find. Her artistic abilities developed early and was acknowledged when she won her first prestigious art competition at the age of 4 in all of Northern Ireland. An A* in GCSE Art and A levels and then got her degree in Art and Design at the University of Ulster in Belfast. After a sold out Graduation show she received the UTV Graduation Award and her art work did a tour of Galleries throughout Ireland. Her work has also been on TV, calendars and in many galleries and office buildings along side many private commissions as far as Europe, USA, Australia and Canada.

'Being an artist and creating with nature was inevitable. Growing up in the beautiful country side and spending all my time with a wide range of animals had such a strong influence on me and really developed my sensitivity to the unspoken language that is all around us.
I first started making pebble art with my daughter on the beach, together we created artwork in the sand. The first pebble picture I put in a frame was of a little bride and groom for my husband, this first piece of pebble art still hangs proudly in my gallery and reminds me how far I have come on my journey.
I feel very blessed to have art in my life, it quietens and satisfies my soul. There is something very satisfying about turning a small, round pebble into something heart-warming and unique.
I really had no idea about the journey that my creativity would take me on, the places I would travel to, the people I would meet or the stories I would hear from customers all over the world. How my art work touches other people's lives is simply awe-inspiring and I feel truly grateful to have gained so much from that first humble pebble that caught my attention on the beach.'
Currently living the dream in Co Down NI with husband Nigel, daughter Emily and ever expanding furry family of horses, dogs and cats.

Artists studio and gallery
I am fortunate that my lovely husband is a builder. He built our house with an art studio and gallery especially for me, with my own balcony for coffee breaks which over looks my horses. Pure bliss. I'm a very lucky lady or is he a very lucky man?! Hmmm...
