Featured Artist: Pamela Wingard

Pamela enjoys the bold use of color and painterly brush strokes to create her abstract
landscapes. She paints in acrylics, layering mark-making within her work using oil sticks, pastels,
charcoal, and graphite.
She grew up in a small town in the Midwest, where she spent time near the water, read stacks
of library books, drew in her sketchbook, and dreamed of being a traveling photojournalist.
Pam holds an MBA from the University of South Carolina, a BS from Utah State University, and
an AA in Graphic Design from the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. She was a project manager and
account executive before transitioning into illustration and graphic design. After studying with
various professional career artists, she discovered her true passion is painting.
She is represented by various galleries and shops in the Southeast, sells her work online, and
participates in group and solo shows. She also teaches painting workshops and retreats. She
works from her home studio in Charleston, South Carolina.
