Amanda Burton : (2)

" I always start from scratch with a character – they’re never based on anyone else. You get ideas of what people look like, and I’m a great people watcher. You can draw inspiration from people. " - Amanda Burton

" I could suddenly see the pressures all around; these endless magazines and cheap reality TV programmes poking at women, humiliating us for every flaw. It makes me so angry. I really wonder what it is we are doing to ourselves, because I do think women can be the worst ones for picking each other apart. " - Amanda Burton
