ABOUT THE ARTIST
Amanda Mclean gave up her prior career to become a full-time artist. She has been working in pastel for over 30 years. Mclean has written more than 20 articles for Australian Artist in the past, and was an Editorial Consultant for a number of years. Although pastel is her passion, she works in all mediums and is an avid sketch-booker. Her skill in rendering both skies and water in the landscape are especially acknowledged. She is highly regarded as a teacher. Her regular weekly classes have run continuously for nearly 20 years. She also conducts short and long workshops. Mclean’s work is held in collections nationally and internationally.
