Tanamy Store was created by Amy Tan, an artist with a wide range of interests. She finds joy in the tactile process of creating pottery and the weightless ease of watercolor painting. Her ceramic works are inspired by the concept of movement within a rigid form, resulting in pieces that are rarely symmetrical. Amy describes her creative process as "dancing with clay" and relishes the unpredictable results of glaze chemistry.
The Tanamy Store logo incorporates three elements: mountains, a coconut tree, and water—depicting a beachfront scene. This imagery reflects a cherished childhood memory under a coconut tree, a moment so vivid she can still taste the coconut water when recalling it. Tanamy Store is her imaginary beachfront shop, where she offers her passions—ceramics, jewelry, and paintings. The colors in her works are inspired by a tropical island landscape: lush green mountains, earthy brown rocks, beige sands, and crystal-clear blue waters. Her water-themed paintings, often evoking calm sea waters, are a nod to the serenity of her childhood.

Amy was born and raised in a small town in Malaysia. Drawn by the faster pace of Singapore, she moved there to work and eventually settled. Malaysia shaped her character, while Singapore taught her how to become a better version of herself. Formerly a creative designer in the tech industry, she now dedicates herself fully to pottery while exploring the paths life unveils to her. She embraces the flow of life with open arms.
