About Amanda Clayton



Amanda Clayton is a printmaker who specializes in creating unique, limited-edition prints using traditional methods of etching and relief printing.
I am a printmaker who lives and works in Suffolk where the surrounding coast and countryside often provides the inspiration for my prints. I love experimenting with colour, particularly with relief prints, and enjoy the challenge of distilling the complexity of a landscape into a design.
Although I studied art for A level and went on to do courses in watercolour and screen printing it wasn't until I retired to Suffolk that I had the time and opportunity to develop my love of printing. A course at Sudbourne Park Printmakers rekindled that love and I'm now delighted to be a member of the group myself. As a group we exhibit at various galleries in Suffolk, including Snape Maltings and the Peter Pears Gallery in Aldeburgh. My most recent exhibition was in June 2023 at The Craft House, Woodbridge.
Primarily a relief printer I also enjoy the narrative form that etching provides, particularly when more detail is required, and the freedom that monoprints or etched lino allow.
