My name is Amanda Busby, and I am a local mixed media artist from Brampton, Ontario. I have been creating since I was a little girl, and I’m so happy to be able to share my love and passion with you! Bold fun colours and female portraits are my favorites, but I also dabble in other subjects from time to time. I sell my originals and offer custom commission work, but I also offer more affordable prints that are sure to give your space some extra pop! I hope you enjoy my artwork! See Amanda on Facebook & Instagram.

Many years ago, I was accepted into York University’s Fine Arts program, but due to financial reasons, never completed it.
I had always promised myself, that once a very busy IT career was done, I would return to my passion for painting. Last year, the pandemic and my retirement coincided and I was afforded the time to devote to painting after a forty year absence. It has been a relearning process, but once brush was put to canvas, it started all coming back. As a former abstract painter, it was time to go back to the basics of composition, design and colour.
I like to capture images of relics from the past. It is a reminder of the frailty of what we build, and the realization that it once had importance and needs to be remembered.
