Amanda Germolec is an interdisciplinary artist and designer from the suburbs of Chicago. 

Originally beginning in traditional art forms, Amanda has been focusing on fashion, footwear, accessories, motivational and self-reflective art in both wearable and non-wearable form, using many different techniques and materials. 

Selected work has been featured in the School of the Art Institute of Chicago exhibition, publication, advertisement and also on social media. 

Amanda is skilled in art (sketching/drawing, design, painting, collage, etc.), fashion illustration, researching and composing a collection, apparel and accessory design, draping, patterning, construction, sewing (hand and machine), leatherwork, fur, shoe, hat and mask making, hand embellishing and finishing.

Amanda was honored to receive an Honorable Mention from the Fashion 2021 Bodybuilder Awards for The ‘LINES’ Collection (see portfolio).

Amanda is a recent graduate, receiving a BFA in Fine Art from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and chose to continue studying here.

Amanda was accepted into the Post-Baccalaureate Certificate in Fashion, Body and Garment program and was offered a Presidential Scholarship.

Sometimes things arise in life & they cause you to change the current path you thought you were meant to take, but you never let your goals cease, you re-route.

Amanda is extremely flattered and grateful to have been chosen as one of the artists to be honored, but will be gracefully postponing this great opportunity and focusing on passionately working in the field that was studied in college.

Amanda looks forward to expanding what knowledge and experience can be gained from working in the industry, returning to finish college when the time is right, future opportunities and what lies ahead!

THANK YOU! :)
