Thank you for your interest in an AMBER original.

An AMBER original is not just another work of art. I'm a fine artist who creates for clients desiring a one-of-a-kind work of art expressing their inspiration. I love working with clients to select a medium. Each medium I offer varies in the time to complete and the materials required. Below are some estimates per medium. Shipping in the continental U.S. is included. 

​

Please email me for any questions you have or to schedule a consultation to discuss a work of art: amberartmn@gmail.com. I look forward to creating a meaningful work you will cherish and enjoy for a lifetime.

The Process

1. SEND AN EMAIL

I would love to hear from you! Email photos, if you have them, of your inspiration (the more the better) and tell me your ideas for a unique work of art. amberartmn@gmail.com 

​

2. CONSULTATION

Let's have a conversation! I would love to get to know you and what the inspiration means for you. Let's talk about art you admire. What are your favorite colors?

​

3. PAYMENT

After initial consultation, a payment of 50% is due prior to sketching. Remaining 50% prior to shipping.

​

4. SKETCH 

Rough sketch ideas will be provided for your approval.

​

5. PAINTING/SCULPTING 

After the sketch is approved the fun begins! I light a fire in the stove in winter, or in summer open the windows and begin creating with complete joy. I'll send 2-3 in-progress photos. I want you to be completely happy with your art!

​
