Pamela Houser

Favorite Medium: paintings
Statement: Norman Rockwell drew my attention to art at an early age with his Saturday Evening Post covers. As soon as electives were allowed in school, art was my major interest.I attended Glendale college, Rancho Santiago College and after our children were grown there was time for Art. I attended San Jacinto Community College and studied privately under Sylvie Wyatt for two years. For several yeaars I have worked on my own to develop the required artistic skills. I am currently studying with Richard Stergulz. Joyfully my husband and I have recently opened 1st Street Studio in Murrieta, CA. I am privileged to teach beginning drawing and oil painting. Using the environment as my medium gives me a chance to express the love and caring of God, which I see looking out over the horizon or the beautiful scene in my own garden. Every leaf and flower is perfect and the colors in nature have no rules. The colors and textures of objects fascinate me and present a challenge recreating them. My work is done in layers sometimes in thin coats and at other times with the use of a palette knife. Ultimately my goal is to have the viewer feel a part of the scene.
