Hi! My name is Ally Amenta and I’m the artist behind Moss and Canvas.
I started creating moss art as gifts for my family and friends, and unlocked a new passion for creating organic and whimsical art. I see my art making process as a meditation, and I hope that my art communicates the uplifting and positive energy that I experience while making it.
I create my work in my home studio in New Jersey, and love traveling to markets and pop-ups in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and New York.

Every piece by Moss and Canvas is made from 100% real and fully preserved botanicals- reindeer moss (lichen), foliage, mushrooms, and florals.

all materials used are fully preserved, meaning they will stay vibrant with no maintenance! no watering, misting, or sunlight are needed. avoid placing your art in high humidity (such as bathrooms) or direct sunlight to extend the life of the piece.
