| I love this picture of Amanda (taken in her former studio) with her sweet pup Phil. |
Today, I am introducing New Orleans artist Amanda Talley. Amanda was my roommate while the two of us studied at the Savannah College of Art and Design. So, I remember when (almost the very moment) she became an abstract painter. We were sitting at our kitchen table in our townhouse on Barnard Street and I said, "Amanda, you could do really well. People like this kind of work."
Indeed, Amanda found her niche and her career has been soaring ever since. Her paintings are beautiful and if you look carefully as you are perusing through one of your favorite decor and design magazines you just might see her work, which has been featured in, among others, Veranda and Southern Accent as well as a holy host of interior design blogs.
What I love about Amanda is that she leaves no stone unturned. This year, she began producing her own fabric line, which is fabulous. Personally, I cannot wait to make an order. My pattern of choice is Magazine. Let this be just one more reason to learn to sew. Yes, mother, I promise.
I have swiped a few more images off the net just to let you see how amazingly Amanda's work transforms an interior space.
