Amanda Hughes Art

Welcome to my website I paint vibrant abstract watercolour paintings which celebrate my deep connection with nature and my joy painting

I love the painting process, my bright and joyful palette expresses my feelings of positivity when immersed in the process of painting  surrounded by nature. My intention is to explore and express these feelings and energies to my audience through colourful marks and energetic, intertwining lines.  My Melbourne studio is home, a self-build barn conversion surrounded by agricultural fields an ever-changing landscape. There are always animal antics to amuse me and up above skylarks sing in the air.
