About Pamela

I received an MFA with a concentration in printmaking from State University of New York at Albany in 1981. Upon completing my graduate degree I traveled to Barcelona, Spain for a year, apprenticing with paper artist Laurence Barker. While working in Spain I combined my new papermaking skills with woodblock prints and created a new body of work. I have shown extensively on the East Coast including a solo show at Amos Eno gallery in NYC. I have been teaching art to both adults and children for over forty years including working as an adjunct professor at Russell Sage College and as a public school art teacher.
