1000-Lb Sisters star Amy Slaton is stepping into her creative era — and fans are seeing a whole new side of her. At 37, Amy’s artistic spark is shining brighter than ever, and she’s proudly showcasing her work on Instagram.
From her early days as a makeup and fashion YouTuber with sister Tammy to becoming a household name through 1000-Lb Sisters, Amy has always had a flair for self-expression. But now, as Season 7 unfolds with wild highs and emotional lows — from engagements to camel bites and even an arrest — Amy is turning to art as therapy.
And honestly? It’s working.
“Yes, I Did That” — Amy’s Dino-Inspired Sculpture 🦖
In March, Amy proudly shared a photo of a handmade dinosaur head sculpture, captioning it with the simple but powerful: “Yes, I did that.”
Fans of the show know Amy’s love for all things horror — even her sons, Glenn and Gage, were named after iconic characters from Pet Sematary and The Walking Dead.
While the post sparked confusion in the comments (some thought it was a birthday cake 😅), Amy took the feedback in stride and kept creating. Her art may be misunderstood by some, but she’s clearly doing it for herself — and that’s what matters.

Amy recently gave followers a heartfelt peek into her creative world by posting an “art dump” — a carousel of personal pieces, from abstract splashes of color to emotionally raw sketches.
In the post, she defines an art dump as “sharing a large collection of artwork, often in a single post or update.” Fans flooded the comments, asking if they could buy her work — and Amy hinted that she’s considering opening a store. 👀
Art With a Purpose: Amy Designs for Her Cousin Battling Cancer 💛
When Amy’s cousin Katie was diagnosed with stage four cancer, it shook the close-knit Slaton family. In true Amy fashion, she turned her pain into something beautiful — a touching work of art dedicated to her cousin, captioned:
“Cancer Doesn’t Get The Final Say.”
The emotional piece is more than art — it’s love, strength, and solidarity in the face of fear.
A Work in Progress — And a Journey of Healing 🌸
Amy also gave fans a glimpse of a recent project in progress — a striking piece featuring delicate pink feathers. She shared that it was a gift for a friend, but it’s also a reflection of where she is right now: soft, strong, evolving.
With all that Amy has been through — mentally, emotionally, and physically — it’s empowering to see her embrace art as an outlet. She’s not just painting pictures; she’s painting a path forward.
