This is the gorgeous work of Chattanooga based artist Amanda Brazier<\/a>. Her compositions are modern,\u00a0but almost rustic at the same time. And\u00a0her colors – oh my –<\/em>these palettes are so beautifully unique… and you’ll find out why in about 32 seconds:<\/p>\n

“My work explores man\u2019s elemental interaction with his environment, particularly in the measured way he builds and inhabits shelter. Influenced by the forms and materials of primitive earth dwellings, my visual language is grounded in architecture and repetition. Like the building process, the paintings develop through stacking, weaving, and assembling simple forms. In addition to referencing the physical structure of a home, the textures and patterning of the paintings suggest woven cloths or quilts, also symbols of protection and comfort. I make paint from pigments processed from the soils near my home, constructing a painted sanctuary with a sense of its origin and culture.”<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yes, she MAKES HER OWN PAINT from soil near her home… <\/em>WHAT?! Um, how beautiful is this…<\/p>\n
