Bio
Melita Nyantakyi
I commissioned Amanda to create a bespoke portrait illustration of a dear friend of mind for her birthday. Needless to say her work looked great and I will be sure to commission her again in the future!
Leah Bellepeau
I had asked Amanda (with late notice) to make my partner an anniversary gift and although it wasn’t much notice, she made us a beautiful picture, having used multiple photos of us which she made into one. He loved it and I would 100% recommend her to anyone. The work she does is outstanding!
