Amanda Phillips

I originally trained as a painter then pursued a career as a chartered architect, became a university tutor at Edinburgh College of Art and Napier University for over a decade teaching architecture, graphic design, product design and drawing and now paint from my studio.

I paint mostly in acrylic but I like to experiment which keeps my work fresh so use different media often on the same painting.  Focus is landscape based and I paint the extraordinary in what may look an ordinary view.  I love space and order but then real emotion and excitement can take over when I use paint.
