Support  Your Artist & Reward the Studio Ninja

When you choose to give, you become part of something bigger—something powerful. You are supporting a small business, a local artist, and her adorable masekd studio buddy (and permanent ninja assistant), Ki-Lani! I am on a mission to make my art accessible to everyone-not just through originals, but through museum-quality art prints and even future pottery! Bringing these dreams to life requires some big studio upgrades,, like a pro printer and a kiln.

If you have enjoyed my 'Life of a Cat' Series or my hand-built pottery trials, consider dropping a tip in the studio jar. Whether it is fuel for me or treats for Ki-Lani, every bit helps us keep this studio sustainable and blooming. We are so grateful for your 'word of mouth' support!

Why Join Our Journey?

  • Cultivate Connection

    Your support helps me continue creating art that invites us all to pause and connect with the simple, beautiful moments of life.

  • Sustain the Creative Spirit

    By giving back, you help keep this local studio thriving, ensuring that art remains a sustainable light in our community.

  • Cherish the Process

    Your contribution allows me to reflect and share the “messy middle” of creation—from beginning washes to final brushstrokes—with everyone.

  • Create Lasting Beauty

    You aren’t just funding a “quick fix;” you are helping build the long-term tools, like archival printers, that allow art to be shared for generations.

  • Direct Local Impact

    Your generosity supports hands-on, grassroots creativity. Every piece is hand-painted in the USA right here in my Huntsville studio, but your support helps me share that beauty with collectors nationwide, making a difference in homes across the country.

  • Inspire a Ripple Effect

    Generosity is contagious. Your support motivates others to cherish local talent and find beauty in their own everyday lives.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • No. Because Amy Boardman Art is a small independent business and not a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit, your tips and contributions are not tax-deductible. Think of your gift as a “digital high-five” or a direct investment in a local creator’s dream!

  • Every cent is stewarded with care. Currently, funds are being saved for our “Big Studio Goals”: a professional archival printer (to make affordable art prints) and a pottery wheel and kiln. And of course, a small portion is always set aside for Ki-Lani’s high-quality ninja treats!

  • Absolutely! Word of mouth is the lifeblood of my studio. Following my journey on social media, sharing my videos and blog posts with friends, and leaving kind comments are all powerful ways to help this studio bloom.

  • Yes! When you checkout through the studio jar, there is a “note” section. Feel free to tell us if you are fueling new painting, pottery, or rewarding the ninja assistant for her hard work.
