Amanda Snyder

I was born and raised in Southern Louisiana, right outside of New Orleans. After school I moved to Denver, Colorado and started a small letterpress design shop, Paper Plates Press, with my husband. The past few years, I’ve been mainly focusing on my paintings.

I find inspiration in the small moments. Moments of life, that are there for a second then gone. But while fleeting, they are so much more. I love turning these brief seconds into lasting memories. The way the light hits in a painting to create contrast, striking an emotion. A subject that sparks a bit of joy and nostalgia. Capturing a moment that takes a viewer back to a vivid place in time.
