Amanda Mata

Amanda have a simple technique based in using whatever that is at hand to accomplish the wished texture. The materials are acrylic, coloring pencils, chalk and so on.

The recent approach of Amanda's paintings is to show a macro vision of elements that shape a nature's micro world. It's an imaginary appreciation of each of those elements that after, through investigation, will reassert it veracity.
In most of the paintings you will see a special inclination for the base background. She considers that as a small but amplified part of what she wants to represent.
