This piece that I’ve titled Abundance brings to mind all that we have at our fingertips if we are open to receiving and reciprocating. I enjoy the wild ride of carving into birch plywood; rarely does a design come out as planned. My approach to printmaking and design is simple; I start with shapes and curves that I’m drawn to in the moment. As the images unfold, I develop a story around what appears, tapping into my subconscious; this process is similar to a Rorschach test. I invite others to use these pieces as a sort of oracle, make their own sense of what they see.

Amanda believes that cultural folklore, spiritual connection to the earth, and our own ancestral teachings show us how to survive and thrive together in a chaotic world.
