Amanda Winkler

“Doing art calms me down. I feel happy while I’m planning a design and working on my pictures.”

Amanda likes to work in solitude, uninterrupted by conversation or chatter. We have given her a “cubby” to work in order to create a “sacred space” where she can concentrate. She loves to work in series for long periods of time. She is truly a mixed media artist; producing work that incorporates text, stenciled images, cut out paper, decorative cut edges and felt pen drawings. Some of her themes have been: flowers, ducks, orchids, fountains, lighthouses, and dogs.
