Artist Lecture at Trinidad State Boyd TCRM building (and virtual!)

9/4/25 5:30-6:30pm

Amanda’s original digital paintings are created by drawing on a tablet screen with a pressure-sensitive stylus in procreate, a program where she customizes the brush tools, mainly airbrush, pen, dry brush, and blending tools in order to illustrate with them and present a unique and expressive style. Her vision is to create work that will uplift people, and bring them a sense of joy. She was awarded 1st place for digital arts at the castle rock art festival in 2023.

She also creates work with traditional media including color pencil, acrylic and oil painting, as well as mixed media pieces. All emphasizing the vibrancy of life, the subtle vibrant colors and profound, divine intricacies that make up the world all around us.
