About Us

AAW 2023 Cover

American Artwork offers a unique source of carefully-curated American painting, sculpture, jewelry, art glass, ceramic, woodwork, photography, and prints.

We began in 2002 as a publisher of printed sourcebooks for contemporary art. The first two books were Craft of Northern California and Art of Northern California.

In 2004 we began publishing American Art Collector, renamed American Artwork in 2018. This annual sourcebook has been juried since its inception by California College of the Arts Painting Instructor Emeritus Howard Eige and Oakland craft gallery owner Jan Christensen-Heller.
