"We've made houses for hatred / Its time we made a place / Where people's souls may be seen and made safe / Be careful with each other / These fragile flames / For innocence can't be lost / It just needs to be maintained. " ~Jewel Kilcher




And Then I Knew


Landscape: "And then I Knew"


Inspired by a photograph of the turn below my house that leads to the river. I happened upon that spot the very moment the ray of sun shot through the trees; it was a kind of epiphany (like Annie Dillard's Tree with the Lights in it).




Woman and the Heron


Woman and the Heron: "These Things I Hold"


A representation of all the things that "make" me.



Surreal Waterfall


Surreal waterfall: "And I Am Like Water"


Focal points that lead the eye in a kind of circular motion much like the water cycle.



Strength


Abstract Female Figure: "Strength"


I first saw this in wood grains on the back of a bathroom stall door. The curves of the woman were obvious in the wood, and I thought it quite appropriate to represent how strong a woman can be.




Amanda Tipton is a Double Major in Philosophy and Art.
