Amanda-
I just happened to log on to etsy when one of your paintings showed up as a just-listed. I am absolutely captivated by your images, they are so soft and haunting and beautiful. I am going to bookmark your blog, I will definitely be popping by to visit from time to time! You are truly talented.
these tiny people are lovely treasures to be sure. they each are so full of personality and subtlety. beautiful!
I need to say i so agree with the people above. I love your work, the delecasie of it is enchanting.
great stuff. are you getting ready for KC? almost down to one month left. aaaahhhhh......
thank you all.
as far as plaza goes i am still in absolute denial that the show is just around the corner, as long as i can look on expedia and see a selection of flights and hotels i don't have to choose one and thus acknowledge that i have a show to go to.
Hi Amanda,
I've met your art twice today. First on Etsy, and now I linked from Noodle and lou studio and saw your wonderful, precious little tiny people... I love your art. In your portraits you reached the essence of people you painted. Amazing!
I found you because Jen Judd-McGee featured us both in her etsy treasury. It's amazing how much the face in your featured painting there looks like the face on my fairy finger puppet featured. Keep on keepin' on-- these are great!
Wonderful inspiring work yet again. The size alone gives them the special quality of a keepsake, intimate and meaningful. I would love to have them on my windowsill oneday!
btw I have listed you on my linklist incase i havent mentioned that already. Hope this is okay. I just had to share your wonderful work with others!
