Amanda Chesney is a printmaker, visual artist and instructor as well as a biologist. She makes works on paper in small editions and as unique originals using traditional and modern sustainable printmaking techniques. Amanda regularly teaches various printmaking classes at the Arts Council of Princeton and Artworks Trenton in addition to being a guest instructor elsewhere.
Amanda’s prints capture the fleeting and sometimes unexpected beauty of the natural world to appeal across cultures and times. She uses found and reclaimed materials and upcycled papers to reflect the locations and seasons where she makes her work. Amanda currently resides in New Jersey and continues to work on both sides of the Canada / USA border, bringing her mix of scientific and artistic skills to capturing an image onto paper.
