This week, Brian & Theo visit the studio of abstract artist, Amanda Lamoureux Smith."Amanda Lamoureux Smith is an internationally published abstract and mixed media visual artist living just outside of Boston, Massachusetts (USA). Amanda paints mostly with acrylics on canvas and she steps in the paint used to create each piece and then uses it to create a footprint as a signature on the back of the canvas. Amanda uses quotes as inspiration to begin each piece, and her technique is derived from a desire to build layers to showcase the emotive outlets that others may equally relate to in life through transformation and the beauty and chaos that is life. Amanda's art has been showcased at various showcases throughout the state of MA and was published in the international literary magazine Beyond Words. Amanda is also a former co-host for a live, local, weekly art TV show called "It's All About Arts."
