Lauren is an avid lover of all artistic mediums—watercolor, acrylic, sculpture, and more. She’s been an artist since she could first hold a crayon or grip a paintbrush. Lauren enjoys capturing emotions, women, nature, and the profound experience of being human. Being human is tough, and for her, art is the soul's way of seeping onto the page, flowing through the canvas, and expressing itself through her fingertips.

Amanda 2020 artist
Instagram: @amanda2020artist
Amanda 2020 is a Canadian Artist. Originally from Quebec, Amanda 2020 resides in Eastern Ontario on a 44-acre farm. She is a self-taught artist whose foundation work is acrylic pouring. Her work is impressionistic / expressionistic landscapes, seascapes and figures. Amanda "paints with the universe" given that acrylic pouring is an imprecise technique, due to the fluid nature of the method. For the most part, all Amanda does is pick the colors to be used and the universe does the rest, she only highlights what the universe created.
