Medium:
Mixed Media 2D “I have always lived in the South,” says Amanda Bennett. “Familiar scenes, people, and phrases from these areas inspire my work.”
Each piece is created on a cradled basswood surface. Layers are built using molding paste, acrylic, graphite, etc. to create a textured surface before the final image and words are painted.
“My direct inspiration is mid-century advertising. I love its graphic nature, its composition, and mostly its color palette.”
Get to know Amanda better:
Titles of works can be descriptive or clever or totally unrelated. What's your favorite title of a piece you've named? Why?
"Over It"
I’ve created an entire series using this title and it takes on an entirely different meaning with each painting.
What is the best gift you have ever received?
My grandmother’s hand written card catalog from the 1960s of all the paintings she sold and to whom with personal descriptions of the transactions.
Where is the most beautiful place you’ve ever been?
This is a tough question to answer! I will say the most beautiful sunset I have ever seen was at The Badlands in South Dakota.
