Commissions are currently open with a 2 week waiting list.
Medium
Watercolor :
Done on high quality 140 lb. Strathmore watercolor paper with professional grade watercolors. Unframed.
OIL :
Done in thin layers on gallery wrapped stretched canvas, Amanda works in a flemish technique allowing each layer to dry before continuing with the next. The surface has a satin finish, giving the end result gives a more vibrant and life-like result.
Acrylic :
This style is slightly more loose than oil and the finish is flat. Unlike oil, this type of paint can be framed behind glass for a primitive print-like appearance. Done on either cavas board or stretched canvas.
Caricatures :
Done on high quality 140 lb. Strathmore watercolor paper using pen and ink with professional grade watercolors. Unframed.
Mixed Media Figures :
Free and whimsical with endless possibilities, mixed media gives Amanda fun creative freedom to explore the different combinations of materials. Her favorite is her one of a kind 3D caricatures made with wood, copper and paper. Let’s not forget the hand carved mini wooden shoes!!
