Amandalynn is one of the most well rounded artists you will ever encounter.

Born to create, Amandalynn’s artistic career spans cities, interests, and genres, infusing raw talent and drive into every endeavor she takes on.

As the only female artist that can lay claim to The Seventh Letter (Juxtapoz #78), Amandalynn has engaged in her fair share of legal and illegal and street art, but her interests take her far beyond city walls and into everything from studio painting, stained glass, sculpture restoration, set composition, apparel design, and custom motorcycle and car artistry. See, we told you she’s well rounded.

1. You briefly touch upon this in your book, Graffiti L.A., and I'm sure you've been asked this before. Why graffiti?
I started taking photos of graffiti for two reasons; because it was an interesting creative new thing, and because it disappeared or got covered over quickly and as far as I knew, no one was preserving a record of it.

NEWSSTAND COVER

SUBSCRIBER COVER

Chaz Bojorquez is a legend of Los Angeles' graffiti and street art culture, and now is finally on the cover of the newest March 2009 Juxtapoz magazine. Inside he is interviewed by another LA graffiti king, Saber. In March, we also feature Risk, D*Face, Dan Witz, Mr Jago, and DZINE, as well as the newest exhibitions from James Jean, Shepard Fairey, Cold War Design, and Rip the Ripper. And, if you look closely, there is a Marlon Brando as Vito Corelone Godfather bust in these pages. Enjoy.

Many times throughout my childhood my parents would pack up and trek halfway
around the world. No mean feat nowadays, but in the 60's and 70's just
getting across a country could be an arduous task. Invariably these journeys
meant strange lands, languages, foods, cities and customs. Seen through my
eyes with a skewed and diminutive perspective, people, buildings and sights
took upon themselves a whole sense of wonderment and scale.

Years later [still often itinerant], most of these places have become fairly
familiar, yet none the less wonderful. My perspective is that of a person
that often paints characters on buildings & works with scale. Alienation and
isolation are thematic throughout my works, both linked to a strong sense of
belonging in a rapidly shrinking world of communication.

Wonderment becomes something else when it has a strong element of
bewilderment mixed into it, how something got there and who did it, why it's
there in the first place and the local "knowledge" that becomes urban lore
or myth, are all extremely important components of ownership, people that
live in the immediate vicinity of these characters become the "caretakers"
looking after the "Lost Giants" in whose city they inhabit whilst other
tourists are able to identify, or wonder at their belonging.

Location: corner of Princes Lane & Wellington Street, Perth.
