Pamela Haddock


"Karen's Place"
  



Artist Statement

Watercolor has the ability to capture the illusion of light like no other medium.  Pamela Haddock has been painting full time in watercolor for 21 years.  Pam uses her work as a form of storytelling packing her paintings with color and emotional content.

Pamela lives in Sylva, North Carolina on the shoulders of the Plott Balsams Mountains.  It is there that she observes and records the weather's moods and chronicles the remains of the old barns and home places that are scattered across the landscape.

Wet on wet is the technique Pam employs to create her work.  She begins by wetting the paper front and back and then works quickly to allow the paint to create the effect that only watercolor can.

Pamela is co-chair for the Western Region of the Watercolor society of North Carolina.

She is a member of the Southern Watercolor Society and recently received the Arches/Canson award for her work in the 34th Annual Exhibition.
