Pamela Vaughn, Kelowna, BC

The countryside has always been an inspiration for Pamela from a very young age. Her early paintings and drawings captured orchards, hills and farms, the scenes she saw while riding her horses in her home state of California. As her interest in art and photography grew, so too did her experiences, taking her to different parts of the world where she studied with other artists and developed her artistic style. The thrill of visiting museums in these countries, and seeing great works of art in person, left an incredible impression on her and continues to influence her paintings to this day.
