Amy Ellison, Hunt Seat Paper Co. Owner

Amy Summer Ellison, founder and artist of Hunt Seat Paper Co., is a Los Angeles native and self-proclaimed weird horse girl. Her collection of equestrian gifts and greetings are inspired by every-day horse life and designed to be mixed-and-matched. Starting from just 12 greeting card designs six years ago, Amy has single-handedly (literally a one-lady-show) grown her product line into hundreds of styles sold in over 300 retail stores worldwide. Every product is lovingly hand-packaged, sustainably made, and shipped by Amy herself. When she’s not in her studio, Amy loves jamming out to her Official Hunt Seat Paper Co. Spotify Playlists, napping with her Pit Bull, Roy Boiii, tending to her aquariums, and loves reading historical, philosophical and scientific non-fiction books.
