First Day, New Art, Happiness Bound.

26/10/2014

 
Hi and welcome! A snippet about me: I'm originally from Chicago - born and raised - as a matter of fact. Until last year. Timing is everything. The company I worked for for seven years closed its doors and I had the chance to venture out west.

I moved to Los Angeles to hibernate in warmth, visit the ocean, and reconnect with nature. As of late, the Pacific Northwest is now home. Surrounded by its majestic emerald forests, numerous waterways and coastal havens, I look forward to seeing every bit of it.

The past twelve months has been about rejuvenating creative energy, visiting national landmarks, learning photography, and getting messy through painting. The artistic side of my mind desperately needed tending to. Rekindling this energy took about six months. By springtime, my mojo kicked in and I am loving it!

Wishing you a colorful day!

The paintings above were varnished with Liquitex high gloss. A couple more layers will do it. Then colors will really pop! Next, paint the sides black to finish them off. The thin boards can be left frameless or framed.

This grouping was painted last week prior to varnishing. What I love about Liquitex's high gloss finish is how it brings all the colors to life, even more so.

    Amanda L. Gamble is passionate about telling stories through bold, competing colors in her paintings, color photography and creating the opposite through her black and white images.

    Born hearing impaired, she was placed into an aggressive speech and language program at 3 years old to learn skills she missed in order to catch up and function in the hearing world. 

    Because hearing was secondary, she learned to compensate through sight. Relying on listening to visual cues, subtleties are more noticeable to her in everyday life. 


    Seen in some of her photography, Amanda captures objects she perceives are ordinarily missed or overlooked. Certain moments are indicative of what has been left astray and perhaps forgotten about among its environment.

    Wanting to know the true story hits curiosity right in the heart, evoking the imagination to run wild. What are your thoughts? What do you see? What stirs you? Contemplating the object's position is interesting and makes for good conversation.

    Amanda's paintings are statement pieces. Some of them reflect coincidentally earth from afar. The organic methods she imposes creates a flow that will not happen twice. What results is purely chance because she is truly in the moment with brush in hand and paint on canvas.

    Her linear works are more structured, however, they too are created with the same technique as the organic pieces.


    In translating sight, feelings and sound to material form, Amanda ultimately brings you fresh, spontaneous, authentic, and ever-expanding art forms.
