About

Amanda Leyens was born July 17th, 1998. She grew up in Chatham, New Jersey,

and graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design in 2020 with a BFA in

Painting. She loves to make colorful artworks with lots of attention to detail. Amanda directs

her love of animals into her work doing commissioned pet paintings. Always looking for new

methods of expression, Amanda has also channeled her creativity into other forms of art,

including wildlife photography and jewelry-making. Each art form feeds another. Wildlife

photos inspire paintings based on those photos, and every painting can be used to create

new pendant designs.
