ARTIST Pamela Clarkson

 

Blog: pamelaclarkson.blogspot.com

Pamela Clarkson is not a native Texan, but she got here as quick as she could. She was born in Santa Fe, New Mexico, but was soon traveling the world with her military family. Her childhood was spent in Korea, Puerto Rico, Iran and Taiwan. She came back to New Mexico long enough to graduate from the University of New Mexico at Albuquerque with a degree in Secondary Art Education, but marriage to a military officer sent her traveling once more. Thailand, Turkey and the Philippines were home as well as Utah, California, Texas, North Carolina, Hawaii and Washington DC. Pamela celebrated every location with her art work. She painted and drew the people and the flavors of each locale. These paintings were happily collected by many of her military peers. She does still life and landscape as well as figures. She also does portraits in pencil. Pamela works with the lines , shapes, and colors of her subject matter, loving the process of transforming something ordinary like a piece of fruit or a field of lavender into something called "art".
