Pattern Play!

Lately I've been having a lot of fun experimenting with a looser style and

 creating patterns from these creations. Operating in this style has enabled me to expand the products I offer in my Society6 shop. I now have shower curtains, bedspreads, towels, rugs, and throw blankets in addition to all the fun smaller products in my shop.

"Volcano at Night" 3-set of carry-all pouches

"Volcano at Night" duvet cover

"Volcano at Night" clock

"Volcano at Night" shower curtain

"Starburst in Flame" tote bag

"Starburst in Flame notecard

"Starburst in Flame" phone skin

"Starburst in Flame" throw pillow

Is everyone having a good fall? The weather has been so inconsistent, but I love the classic cool autumn days.

Tickets are $10 and include entry, three free sample pages from Bedrooms, and coloring supplies to hang out and color with! If you purchase the book, I'll be there to sign and personalize it. :)

I hope to see you there!

Bedrooms!

Hello everyone!

I can't believe how long it has been since I've posted. I know that the satisfaction I get from the community on Instagram has kind of filled the place of that which I used to get from my blog, but I really do miss being here, writing, documenting. I am determined to return to regular posting, and in the upcoming months I am making the transition into full-time artist and I know that will allow me to do so.
For now, here are some updates! My coloring book, Bedrooms, is finally out with Pomegranate! This book has been such a labor of love for me and I am so happy to finally see it in print. You can purchase it directly from Pomegranate here, and I also have some signed copies available in my etsy shop. It's also in stores, though I cannot tell you which ones when it comes to national locations! :)

I also gave my website a much-needed update! 

I hope you're all having a lovely start to summer.

I'll be back soon.

Love, Amanda

 I have to admit, I was horrified when I looked at my blog today and saw that it has been almost a full year since I last posted! So much has happened, and it has gone unshared here. Instagram has definitely become my main platform for sharing work. It's quick and informal and on my phone and I love it, so it's become all too easy to forget other forms of social media.

I miss this blog. It's truly been the keeper and tracker of every little success I've had thus far in my art career, big or small. I'm going to try to post here once a week. That is my new goal.

So, I will be back soon. Happy Valentine's Day!
