BLOG
A new blog about each of my encaustic portraits and installations as they relate to artworks in collections worldwide. Each post will centre on one or more of the artworks and explore the titles, stories and connections I see between ancient images and contemporary issues; as well as highlight the amazing women who inspired me!
Eyeing Medusa is a new project by Amanta Scott commencing with a series of encaustic paintings of admirable women.
