Amanda Sharp Equine Art

A little bit about me...
Originally from the UK, currently living in Calgary, Canada with my two kids and dog, Neo.
As you can probably tell through my artwork, I’m horse obsessed! I have been riding for most of my life. In fact, it was my desire to have a portrait of my beloved horse Josh that reignited my love of fine art.
My main focus is creating realism drawings, mostly using a combination of charcoal, graphite and oil-based pencils, which I feel lends itself well to creating smooth fur and fine texture.
Alongside the kick of green tea, my art is what gets me out of bed every morning! I love spending my days creating large drawings and portraits, as well as capturing unique personalities on paper.
As an animal lover, I'm driven to create a positive impact in the world through my art,
therefore a percentage of my sales profit goes towards supporting equine & animal
rescue organizations.
