The Creativity Behind ArtWise 

 

Amber Pellegrini-Kester, has over 10 years of art experience in camps and schools. ArtWise allows Amber to combine her varied talents in design and event project management with her passion for helping people. This eclectic ArtWise co-creator has a fervor for tackling problems with her endless energy and creative spirit.  She is the force behind our ArtWise creative direction and business marketing.  She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Tyler School of Art and enjoys making glass art when she isn't teaching a class.  She recently earned a Master of Arts in Teaching from SPU in Seattle.  Amber finds joy in raising her own three spunky artists and working in our local elementary schools.  If she isn't doing Art you will probably find her in her garden or on a hike with her children.

We might have to build a new wall in our house to hold all of the fabulous art."
