Welcome to
THE STUDIO
A place where I'm always inspired to create.
Meet the artist!
Hey there!​
​
My name is Amelia Polder and I am a self-taught watercolor, acrylic, and oil artist!
​
There is nothing I enjoy more than creating in my small cozy studio, here in the mountains of Virginia, USA!
It wasn't until I was an older teenager that I finally realized how much I loved art. It was after my grandmother (who was an
art teacher) came up to our farm and gave me and my siblings an art lesson. It was
the very first time I'd ever painted something with acrylics and couldn't have enjoyed it more. After that, I never stopped painting!
Now, I have my own small business where I sell my vintage inspired postcards,
original paintings, prints, hand-painted sneakers & earrings for women, stickers I’ve designed with my art,
and custom art such as family portraits, pet portraits, or
just a special moment someone wants turned into a painting.
Starting out with just
original art..
I've decided to branch out!
​
My goal is to bring back beautiful and unique apparel by designing and painting my own line of shoes, hats, and shirts, here in USA.
Custom book cover
When I needed a cover for my very first book, I turned to Truth Social and found the amazing Ameilia Polder Art. Working with Ameilia was amazing! I explained what my book was about as well as sending her a draft so she could get a feel for the subject. I only had a vague idea of what I wanted my cover to be but we were able to brainstorm together and from that Ameilia was able to produce a sketch. We made a couple of changes and by the third draft my amazing cover was done! I had researched expected costs and Ameilia's price was right in the median range, but much quicker and more personalized than I would have gotten from a cookie cutter website. Amazing!
