Amanda Myers Does Art

Hello Internet. I am an artist and printmaker from Mississippi. I mostly make linocut prints, but also enjoy drawing, sculpting, and experimenting with other mediums. You can checkout my finished work at amandacmyers.com or my Etsy shop: http:// www.etsy.com/shop/Admers

Keyblock carved and proofed. Transfered fresh print to 2nd piece of linoleum to draw. Then carve the 2nd color. #art #printmaking #wip #linoblock #linocut #baku https://www.instagram.com/p/CKO6BH8FGxD/?igshid=ixzsadc7atw4

Third time drawing this baku. This time on the linoblock and ready to carve. This 2-color print will be fun. #printmaking #linocut #linoblock #drawing #baku #wip #dreameater https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ8xa4YltTF/?igshid=91suxppw0p66

"Cut off a wolf's head and it still has the power to bite". A ceramic piece designed to be representational and functional. Imagine putting your hand into this for jewelery or a candle! #art #sculpture #ceramic #ceramics #wolf https://www.instagram.com/p/CIGbw-agzWn/?igshid=1xf5napcvf496

I guess “soon” is a relative term since it has been weeks since I said I would list this print. My latest #linocut features jewel beetles that change color depending on viewing angle and lighting. I have had and been wanting to try this experimental technique for about a year. I am happy to see it finally come together with a positive result! I look forward to using this technique in future prints. I have so many ideas already! Check my Etsy shop to grab one from this limited edition of 8: Etsy.com/shop/admers #art #printmaking #reliefprint #handmade #beetle #InsectArt #buprestidae #lino #ColorLino #ColorChanging https://www.instagram.com/p/CH5xw5ug__y/?igshid=57tvgildpp7h

What do you think about this #peelreveal ?! I've had this idea to make a color-changing linocut for over a year and am thrilled to finally see it come together! These will be limited, but available soon! #art #printmaking #linocut #print https://www.instagram.com/p/CHY4n80AIyi/?igshid=rypg1egxl9wv

My latest linocut print, “Manatees” is now available in my Etsy shop! It has been a long time since I’ve made a print with an aquatic subject and the drastic change from my last print, a detailed angry tiger, to a couple of chill minimal manatees was a challenge! I’m happy with the outcome, especially with how the water effect came out. Maybe some chill art is what you need on your wall during these trying times? If so, find this print and others at www.Etsy.com/shop/Admers #art #print #printmaking #printmaker #linocut #manatee #linoprint #linogravure #colorprint #aquaticlife #seacow #florida https://www.instagram.com/p/CGleJLLgtqE/?igshid=1hid313y4xdn

Some manatee prints hanging to dry. These are already editioned and listed in my Etsy shop, but I hope to make a more official announcement soon! I hope you like these floating sea-blimps. #art #printmaking #linocut #reliefprint #print #colorprint #manatee #manateeart https://www.instagram.com/p/CGSurVvFlnm/?igshid=16hvf1z1mc0dj

First color printed for this two-color linocut. Can you tell what it will be from the silhouette? #art #printmaking #linocut #wip #color #reliefprint #manatee https://www.instagram.com/p/CGBFlubg5bu/?igshid=h1pqpo4zr2kw

A ceramic figure of a Nurikabe, a mythical creature from Japanese folklore that manifests as an invisible wall to block travelers. I like to think of it more as a mental block, rather than a physical one. Just imagine this creature next time you are dealing with an art block. #art #ceramic #scupture #yokai #nurikabe #塗り壁 https://www.instagram.com/p/CFPyak1AtP8/?igshid=1rhhl62u6dym6
