About Me

It all started when I started to draw horses at age 2...

...and then all else went down hill from there!

Well not so much.

My name is Amanda Putnam. I am an aspiring Young Adult/Middle Grade Children's Book illustrator and Educator. I obtained a MFA in Children's Book Illustration from the Academy of Art in San Francisco. I reside with my husband in my hometown of Springfield, MA painting, drawing, teaching, and working. I work in watercolor, pen and ink, with the occasional pastel and other drawing mediums.

Actively seeking agents, publishers, and authors to work with. Please go to my CONTACT page or email me at aputnam.art@gmail.com.
