I recently had a chat with talented landscape artist Jo Fernandez about her creative process, inspiration, and love of the natural world in preparation for her new solo exhibition Silver Linings. Jo’s work captures the beauty and mood of the landscape, from wide open skies to textured terrain. Her paintings invite viewers to connect with nature in a thoughtful and heartfelt way. Whether you’re an art enthusiast or simply curious about the life of an artist, this interview offers a warm and honest look behind the scenes of her practice.

We first discovered Amanda through one of our many group exhibition opportunities, as we do many of our fabulous artists. From one entry comes many, and her popularity has grown exponentially during this time resulting in Amanda’s first solo exhibition Beyond 4 Walls opening this April at The Corner Store Gallery.
Amanda Holman is a truly lovely and warm person, as well as a wonderful artist in her own right. Her quiet and beautiful depictions of the Australian landscape begin with field trips and drives across this beautiful country we call home. Sometimes painted within the landscape, sometimes painted form photographs back in her home studio. Amanda’s studio is the stuff of dreams, located on the ground floor of her home, accessible via a courtyard from the street.
