Born in Michigan, a four-year-old Pam pushed aside her toys, turning her tea table into a desk with a jar of pencils, crayons, and a pile of scrap paper. She has been making art ever since. After earning her Master of Fine Arts from the California Institute of the Arts, she spent years working in illustration, animation, and teaching in the San Francisco Bay Area. During the pandemic, she returned to her painting roots, and today she pursues her creative dream full-time.
“Nature is my spiritual church. I am deeply inspired by the California Impressionists who captured the grandeur of the American West. Because so much of this beauty is being lost to development, I want to capture these spectacular vistas with my own eyes to preserve how I see and feel about them and to share them with future generations. While I work with various mediums, landscape painting is my true passion.”
