About the Amanda Warren CollectionWhenever Amanda comes to mind, I picture vibrant colors, intense feelings, and an unstoppable drive to keep pushing forward. Her tenacity is remarkable as she transitions from junk journaling and formal art classes to scrapbooking, all setting the foundation for her artwork. Amanda is a self-taught artist whose playful spirit, love of words, and bold use of color shine in her work. Since 2011, she has been refining her craft. Each piece reflects her optimism, courage in self-reflection, and commitment to growth.

Many women have experienced this scenario: A man pursues you, making his intentions clear and saying everything you hope to hear. Yet, as soon as you reciprocate, he begins to backtrack—some promises fade, others are outright broken. While not all men behave this way, especially beyond adolescence, Amanda faced a similar situation. Her response was a mix of anger and frustration, but ultimately, she reclaimed her independence and sense of self.
Do you find yourself believing in endless possibilities, gazing at the stars with wonder? Amanda captures this sense of cosmic exploration and imaginative thinking in her artwork. Her painting evokes questions like "why not?" and inspires viewers with thoughts of space journeys and bold, creative concepts.

Amanda’s ‘Before’ Collection
Amanda possesses a diverse range of skills, one of which is her certification in breathwork. As recognized by many, breathwork offers physical, emotional, and psychological benefits. Amanda employed these techniques as she worked to overcome challenges and transition into a new stage of her life. This work reflects her journey through that transformation. Self-reflection is an ongoing process comprised of both positive and negative experiences. Such periods of change are universal, marking moments when individuals move toward personal growth. Amanda skillfully expresses this concept in her artwork, serving as a reminder of the transformative nature of self-development.

As Amanda broadened her expertise in incorporating new media into her work, she encountered coffee filters, which served as a source of inspiration. The interplay of textures added a distinctive dimension to her piece, resulting in an environment that remains dark in color while conveying an uplifting spirit.
