Process
4.
ARTWORK CREATION
After the Digital sketch is approved and the Artwork deposit is paid, the actual painting begins! On average, it takes about 1 - 7 days to create an artwork (it all depends on the size and the level of detail). Once the Artwork is created, I will send you images of the final artwork for your review and approval, and make final edits if needed.
5.
DELIVERY
Once the artwork is finalized, it will be delivered to you within 14 - 21 days, or sooner, but a rush delivery charge may apply. If you live in Greater Seattle area, I may personally deliver the artwork to you.
6.
SATISFACTION
I am committed to making the entire process so smooth and the artwork so awesome that you will be excited to tell everyone you know!

DIGITAL DESIGN
Every artwork that I create for my Clients, I design electronically first so that you can preview what the final artwork will look like and tell me if it needs any edits. I will create a digital sketch of the artwork for you, once the Design fee has been paid, as outlined in the Project proposal.

Tamara painted a beautiful portable 4ft x 8ft mural for our home. We absolutely love it. We gave her two photos and she combined them into one masterpiece. She was excellent with feedback and our last minute ideas. We would recommend her to anyone looking for a stunning piece of custom art.

Tamara was so incredibly easy to work with. She always responded quickly to our emails and even hand delivered our piece when the Covid pandemic caused a delay in shipping. We highly recommend her!

Tamara most impressively was a very responsive business person in addition to providing what I was looking for on a collaborative project. She contacted me withing several hours of posting my request. Other took days or weeks to get back to me. She provided her artistic interpretation of my idea. All in all a great experience.

Peacock oil painting
Black walnut series
Oil on black walnut wood, 20 inches wide x 21 inches long
Tamara Hergert has started a series of oil paintings on black walnut slabs. The first painting in the series, The Peacock, is gorgeous.
It's subtle, yet powerfully beautiful. The painting was inspired by the patterns and swirls that Tamara saw in the wood.
Oil on black walnut wood, 16 inches wide x 29 inches tall
The "Horse" original oil painting was inspired by the patterns and swirls on the black walnut wood slab. The subject matter of the painting symbolizes bond with nature and animals, horses in particular.
Oil on black walnut wood, 32 inches wide x 27 inches long
The painting was inspired by the patterns and swirls that Tamara saw in the wood. The subject matter of the painting symbolizes bond between parent and child. This idea is emphasized by the shapes of the slabs, where slabs are from two different trees, but they somehow fit together.
