Amanda Lincoln | Educator & Artist Based in the Shaker area after working and studying in NYC for about 20 years. She is passionate and interested in many art mediums. Some but not limited to are pop-up cards, ceramics, childrenโ€™s book drawings, illustrations, and watercolor.

Her inspiration comes from her wonderful husband, Graham, traveling internationally, spending the summers on Mentor Headlands Beach, having served as a Ukrainian Peace Corps volunteer and taking up hobbies that arenโ€™t typical - such as demolition derby, flying planes or slalom water skiing. And finally, being a forever learner and explorer.

Amanda is an active advocate for arts, and literacy in the Cleveland community. She is on the board at Lawrence School and Kids Book Bank. Sheโ€™s extremely excited to help Van Aken grow with the artist community and hopefully develop a figure drawing/art class all are welcome to.
