Amandas work focuses on atmospheres in the landscape and the acoustics which also contribute to memories of an experienced landscape.
She often incorporates the use of tartan paper or graph paper in her paintings, as the grid patterns enhance the visual complexity and reflect her architectural background and she loves lines. The tartan paper provides inspired flashes of colour combinations that are familiar to us all.
Industry and engineering are also of great interest and diagrammatical lines and mathematical engineering symbols are incorporated into some paintings.
More recently her work has focused on atmospheres in the landscape and the acoustics which also contribute to memories of an experienced landscape. The aim is not just to capture the visual aspects of the landscape but also the soundtrack. These are expressed in mark making which may at first appear random and abstract, but add to the visual impact and address the acoustics of the landscape.
Working spontaneously she adopts a mixed media approach which includes paint, gesso, charcoal, pastel, printed paper and pencil mark making to create a layered depth of surface.
