Pam likes to paint the world around her…the people, places, and things that generate happy memories. She captures glimpses in time, later recreating them in watercolor. Landscapes, nature, and wildlife that manifest the beauty of the natural world, stir her creativity.Pam has a strong graphic arts background, but is a self-taught watercolorist. She blends these skills by watercolor painting from photos that she has taken as well as en Plein air. Her graphic arts experience strongly influences her painting style, exhibiting details of the moment in bright and vivid colors. Pam is active in local and regional art circles, selected for several exhibitions and awards, including featured artist for Double Decker Art Festival, 2017, Community Supported Artist Grant, 2017, and Invitation Oxford poster designed for the 2008 Presidential Debate. “Inside or outside, I love to paint. The challenge of capturing the beauty of God’s creation and taking time to reproduce it in watercolor; that’s my happy place.”
