Amber Pierson


Amber transforms her deep love of the desert landscape into breathtaking works of art using her favorite medium: Colored Pencil. Her technique, which she affectionately calls drawpainting, captures the soul of the Southwest in layered detail. Every stroke is slow and intentional, and she finds inspiration in every cactus, shadow, and splash of desert sunlight.
