AMANDA KELLA

After an exciting career in the fashion industry as a jewelry designer, I quit my “real” job to stay home with my boys. As a creative person who can’t sit still, somehow that led me to canvas and paint ... and a realization that abstract art is my passion. I’m inspired by fabrics, colors, and interior design. I don’t worry too much about the rules. I just paint what I would want to hang in my own home. Color makes me happy!
