"Self Portrait on Deck" is a rare self-portrait by exceptionally private artist Amy Scherer, (she's not on social media, and very few photos exist of her online). Her self portrait study is an elegantly simple composition in acrylic on archival paper, with bold saturated blues and greens, offsetting a muted subject with subtle filtered light. She uses a redactive technique resulting in a minimal amount of paint that creates a maximum amount of emotion. This work is hand-signed by the artist on the back.

Seattle Art Source procures artists for our roster proactively, and we generally do not accept unsolicited submissions. However, we do review all inquiries monthly for potential future projects or open calls.
Due to the high volume of inquiries we receive, we are unable to respond individually to every submission. If there is a potential fit now, or in the future, we will reach out to that artist.
However, we love following artists on social, meeting artists at artwalk, hosting community events, and amplifying art content.
We want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase and are happy to help resolve any issues once your artwork is received.
Due to the one-of-a-kind nature of our artwork, pieces may be exchanged for Seattle Art Source credit within 3 days of purchase, provided the work is returned in the condition it was received.
Non-commissioned artwork purchased online is eligible for an exchange within 7 days of receipt. Return shipping costs are the responsibility of the purchaser.
Please note: Commissioned artwork, sale items, and photography prints are final sale and not eligible for exchange.
