After a year of literature studies in Madrid, it became clear that the drawing would be more than a hobby, and while back in Sweden Amanda started studying "Graphic Design and Illustration" at Bergh's School of Communication in Stockholm. Today Amanda runs her own business under the name "House of Mendi" in which she produces, exhibits and sells her art, and take assignments as a freelance illustrator. With everything from private collectors, communications and public relations agencies, advertising agencies into apparel and footwear brands such as Sessions and Vans as customers, to name a few. 

In Amanda's paintings fashion and attitude of both classic and modern design language comes together, with a natural, confident manner. One can see the love of lines and colors as well as photography and cartoons. Amanda blends a graphic clarity of illustration in her canvases.
