Born and raised in California, she returned to her grandmother's roots in Southern Maine in 1990. She graduated from the University of Southern Maine with a Bachelors Degree in Arts.

Amber enjoys working with clay sculpture, painting in oil, pastels, and photography.

Amber grew up with her great-grandfather, Claude Buck's artwork in her life, which influenced her to follow in his footsteps.

Amber is grateful for the wonderful support that she receives from her friends and family, but most of all from her mom, Barbara Buck.
