Affiliate Disclosure
Effective Date: July 03, 2026
Transparency matters to me.
From time to time, Erin Marie Does Art may recommend products, tools, books, art supplies, or services that I genuinely enjoy using or believe may be helpful to fellow artists, pet lovers, makers, readers, or creative people.
Some of those recommendations may include affiliate links.
⸻
What Is an Affiliate Link?
An affiliate link is a special link that allows me to earn a small commission if you decide to make a purchase through that link.
The commission comes from the retailer, not from you.
Your purchase price remains exactly the same whether you use my affiliate link or visit the retailer directly.
⸻
Why I Use Affiliate Links
Running an art business takes more than paint and paper.
Affiliate commissions help support things like:
Art supplies
Website hosting
Studio equipment
Photography gear
Packaging supplies
Educational resources
The time spent creating free tutorials, blog posts, and helpful content
When you choose to shop through one of my links, you’re helping support Erin Marie Does Art at no additional cost to you, and I truly appreciate it.
⸻
Honest Recommendations
My recommendations are based on:
Personal experience
Independent research
Products I personally use
Products I would feel comfortable recommending to a friend
Receiving a commission does not influence my opinions.
If I don’t genuinely like or trust a product, you won’t find me recommending it here.
⸻
Sponsored Content
Occasionally, I may partner with brands or companies.
When content is sponsored or I have received products in exchange for a review, that relationship will always be clearly disclosed within the content itself, in accordance with applicable advertising guidelines.
Any opinions expressed remain my own.
⸻
Amazon Associates
Erin Marie Does Art may participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated websites.
As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
⸻
Other Affiliate Programs
In addition to Amazon, Erin Marie Does Art may participate in affiliate programs offered by other retailers, brands, or companies whose products align with my work and interests.
These may include companies related to:
Art supplies

Pet products

Technology
Office supplies
Education
Small business resources
Participation in these programs may change over time.
⸻
Your Choice
You’re never under any obligation to purchase through an affiliate link.
If you choose to use one, thank you.
If you don’t, I’m still grateful you stopped by.
