Amanda Leigh
Visual Art – New Orleans
I am a New Orleanian native currently living in the Bywater. Besides painting, I cook all sorts of delicious concoctions, sew and attempt to garden. I took some art classes in middle school, but since that is what everyone wanted me to do I naturally rebelled and refused to do art all throughout High school and college. Now I have graduated with an international business degree and have worked two years in the bee hive, I have found that I regret not perusing my creative side. I feel balanced and at peace with myself when I have a paintbrush in my hand and I see my visions come to life. I still have much to learn and develop, but at least I know it will be a never ending journey that I will most definitely enjoy and I hope you will as well.
