About Amanda Horvath

Amanda Horvath is a contemporary artist producing vibrant colourful and highly textured original paintings. Amanda attended Sheffield Hallam University, where she achieved a B A Hons (1st class) in fine art painting and printmaking. She subsequently lectured for a while and now practices full time as an artist from her studio in the Peak District where she lives with her husband.

"Painting is a response to the beautiful landscape around me, I attempt to capture the luminosity of light rays pouring through trees, the spirit of the forest and the quiet tranquillity of these peaceful places. Moved by the ethereal light filtering through leaves in woodlands and dramatic contrasting shadows. My inspiration begins with my walks through the beautiful Peak District where I live close to the natural world. I love every season each having its own beauty. I have a passion for expressing nature in beautiful colours, whilst imparting a meditative calm. This affinity with nature has grown from early childhood and my past experiences."

Working from observation of nature Amanda gathers visual information with a sketchbook or camera and often begins a canvas en plein air, finishing these preliminary pieces in her studio. Working expressively in acrylics or oils, often with a palette knife or other mark making techniques she applies layer upon layer until the painting reaches a natural conclusion, forming contemporary paintings that lie somewhere between abstraction and realism. Her paintings have found homes with private collectors worldwide.

About the Product

In creating this piece, I worked in layers and textures on the canvas to evoke the serenity of a mystical forest place. Harnessing elements of impressionism brings to mind a calming scene that invites the viewer to experience nature's introspective tranquillity. The soft gold and delicate expression of light weave a tapestry of serenity and freshness that will infuse any space with the peaceful energy of a sylvan dream.

An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created with high quality acrylic paints on a circular canvas. I begin with observation of the place making notes and taking photographs to work from in the studio. From these beginnings I work intuitively, painting some base layers with a brush and then impasto techniques layer on layer applied with a palette knife. Harnessing optical mixing techniques employed by the impressionists and some of the methods of the old masters such as scumbling and glazing. I continue working until the painting reaches a natural conclusion. The result is a contemporary painting, which lies somewhere between abstraction and realism. The painting continues round the sides and is signed on the side; a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang. For display purposes the painting has been photographed on a white background.
