Lives and makes art in Dothan, AL

 

Pam, a native of Birmingham, Alabama, has always called the South home. After 37 years in Palm Harbor, Florida, and a brief time in North Carolina, she now resides in Dothan, Alabama, where she has lived for the past four years.

 

After retiring as an accounting manager, Pam pursued her lifelong creative passions, delving into weaving, knitting, art, and history. She honed her skills through classes in Sumi-e and watercolor painting, knitting, weaving, and jewelry-making. She also joined and remains an active member of the Daughters of the American Revolution.

 

A love of color defines Pam's artistry. She delights in selecting vibrant, colorful yarns for her projects. Crafted with Peruvian worsted wool, she knits her hats before felting them, which involves washing the hat in boiling water with agitation to meld the fibers together. She uses a variety of yarns for her woven scarves, preferring those from Italy.

 

As in weaving and knitting, Pam also finds therapeutic fulfillment in painting. She favors landscapes, flowers, birds, and dogs as her subjects. Through her art, Pam brings beauty, vibrancy, and comfort to those around her.
