Nostalgic memories of lovely afternoon walks on the beach with the sound of seagulls and oyster catchers flying overhead inspired this peaceful seascape. The painting expresses a tranquil beach at low tide and embodies the serene whispers of the ocean. The painting is impressionistic in style and created and the textures of the rocks are crafted with sand from the beach mixed into the paint. It captures the wildness of the coast and sea on a calmer day where land meets sky. It will infuse any space with a calm, yet spirited energy, a reminder of a quiet day on the beach. An original artwork, one of a kind, this painting has been created in mixed media on a deep edge 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, it is signed on the back, a frame is not needed and it is ready to hang.

Amanda Horvath is a contemporary artist producing vibrant colourful and highly textured original paintings. After studying fine art painting and printmaking at Sheffield Hallam University, where she achieved a B A Hons (1st class) Amanda subsequently lectured in colleges. She now practices full time as an artist from her studio in the Peak District.
“Painting is a response to the beautiful landscape around me, I attempt to capture the spirit of the land and that quiet sense of tranquillity that coexists with a closeness to the natural world. I am moved by dramatic light sweeping over the rugged elements chased by clouds and the timeless changing sea when visiting the coast. I have a passion for expressing nature in bright vivid colours and nothing gives me more pleasure than when people say they love their painting."
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 in the UK, America, Asia, Europe and Australia. Amanda exhibited at the Bath Art Fair 1st-2nd March.
