Amanda Padfield 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.

Amanda is currently focused on private commissions, but a new body of work is expected in October. Be sure to register your interest for an early preview.
