Amanda Padfield
Amanda is a visual storyteller, known for her richly layered, mixed-media works that delight both the eye and the imagination. With a background in Fine Art, Fashion, and Textiles, her work brings together technical mastery and playful exploration — resulting in pieces full of texture, movement, and charm.
Travel has had a profound influence on Amanda’s artistic journey. Her palette and patterns are shaped by time spent in India, Africa, the Middle East, Australia, and America, giving each canvas a unique cultural resonance. Working with iridescent acrylics, gold leaf, crackling mediums, glass beads, and a variety of natural and synthetic materials, Amanda creates vibrant surfaces that shimmer with energy and character.
Every painting invites the viewer into a whimsical world — full of hidden details, joyful surprises, and a sense of wonder. Her distinctive, tactile style encourages close looking and emotional connection, making her work as joyful to live with as it is to explore.
