Over the years, Amanda has dabbled in various forms of art other than those mentioned on other pages. These include but are not limited to work in metal and mirror, drawing, edible art, and remixes. You can learn more about and see some of these works below.

Metal

Mirror 

Ceiling Tile Broken Mirror & Razor Blades Amanda used to make art with broken mirror, mostly by piecing it back together onto surfaces such as a tray or a journal cover. Unfortunately they don’t have pictures of most of it. In one class, they had an assignment to decorate a ceiling tile. They made a piece with broken mirror, red paint, and razor blades, which hung in the classroom for awhile. Someone offered to buy it, and they should have sold it because a corner later broke off and they had to toss it.

Edible Art 

Amanda once made a gingerbread house big enough to sit in during a 3-D art class, which was kind of fun. It was displayed in the class’s art show. If they had a picture from that setting, it’s been lost, so you get to see it in the classroom.

Drawing

Drawing was never Amanda’s forte, but she had to take classes in drawing foundations and figure drawing for their art minor and at least got better at it than they were. Unfortunately they don’t have a picture of their favorite piece from the figure drawing class, but here are a few they think turned out okay:

Remixes

Amanda has made several remixes combining art and text, both with their own work and the work of others. You can see those in this album on HitRECord.
