about pamela
Pamela has been an artist exploring many mediums pretty much her entire life. Starting with oil painting, then photography, print making, weaving, jewelry and for the last 15 years primarily working in mosaics. Her art as a mosaicist draws from years of experience gleaned from all these mediums. She left the big-city life of San Francisco, Los Angeles, Mobile, Milwaukee, San Diego, Portland, to retire to the rural life on a creek in Oregon. Life is good!
