Amanda Ogilby
Margaret River artist Amanda Ogilby produces her still life works through a combination of passion and determination, while experiencing sensations of meditative calm and gratitude during the creative process. She pairs common, yet carefully curated household décor with assorted fruits, florals and fabrics. The results are elegantly adorned scenes that are as delicate as they are bold.
Amanda got engaged in crafts and creative endeavours from an early age. Her parents were both creatively inclined, particularly her father who was a keen hobby artist and worked primarily with charcoal and pastels.
After her working career and birth of her two children, now grown, Amanda has reinvigorated her artistic zeal and freedom of creative expression, soon developing her paintings exclusively using her chosen medium of oils.
Amanda has twice been a previous finalist in the Lethbridge 20000 Small Scale Art Award and 2023 finalist in the Unearthed Art Prize.
