Amy Liu — Watercolour Artist & Urban Gardener in Amsterdam
Beezy Tiger is my Amsterdam-based studio for creating art and growing organic plants. I was born in China in the year of the Tiger and moved to San Francisco as a child, later working in tech after college. Years ago, a fresh start and new love brought me to Amsterdam. As I continued in tech, I realized I wanted a career that made a difference and connected me to the environment. Exploring art and gardening brought me joy, and starting Beezy Tiger allows me to share that experience — helping others unplug, connect with nature, and enjoy creative, mindful moments.
The Studio
Beezy Tiger combines art and urban gardening to create unique, inspiring experiences in Amsterdam. My workshops give you a chance to unplug from the digital world, get your hands dirty, and explore your creativity. Whether you want to reconnect with nature, grow organic food in the city, create something beautiful, or simply unwind, there’s something here for you.
Gardening & Beekeeping
What started in 2018 with a few indoor plants grew into a balcony garden with peppers and tomatoes. I expanded further by transforming a tiled backyard into a year-round fruit and vegetable garden and trained in natural beekeeping, now maintaining a hive. I love sharing my knowledge to help others discover the joy of growing their own food, connect with nature, and experience the rewards of hands-on gardening. Follow my gardening journey on Instagram.
Art
I enjoy creating original watercolour art, especially as gifts for friends and family. My work is inspired by everyday life — including nature, pets, and food. Here you’ll find original paintings, cards, and other fun creations. Commissions and artworks are created in Amsterdam but can be shipped worldwide. To see more of my artwork, check out our Shop, my portfolio, and follow my art account on Instagram.
Whether in a workshop, at home with a terrarium, or through art, I hope Beezy Tiger inspires moments of calm, connection, and creativity in your everyday life.
