Pam's lifelong desire to create art really took shape after she became a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT 27 2017). Zentangle is a process of creating art using one stroke at a time. Zentangle can be done by anyone who can hold a pen. The step-by-step instructions guarantee success and confidence to all who give it a try. Prior to learning Zentangle Pam’s drawing skills were nil. Zentangle teaches form, composition, shading and so much more.

Post Zentangle Pam has gone on to study Charcoal and Watercolor with Kristy Partridge instructor. Watercolor with Maria Raczynska instructor and Louise De Masi instructor. All world-renowned artists with amazing teaching skills.

Pam wrote and illustrated her first book in 2018 based on her love of butterflies and nature in general. Her book The Lonely Lonely Butterfly, Ebony B Swallowtail can be found on Amazon. E B Swallowtail is a child’s story and a family butterfly guide all in one.

She gives Zentangle, Watercolor, and Sewing classes at her newly remodeled studio, and just loves to help people release their own inner artists.

Co-President of AOS CT, Superintendent Fine Arts at the Woodstock Fair and owner/operator of FlutteringWings Studio. She is active on many art committees and attends as many art shows as possible.

Fluttering Wings Studio is part of Pam's Butterfly Sanctuary.  For years she raised butterflies for Butterfly Pavilions and during that time she perfected a method of creating jewelry using the naturally deceased butterfly wings. 

She grew up with a sewing Mother who taught her the art of sewing with precision. She thanks her Mom for that as she sews up her art pieces. Fabric design is one of the new crafts in her arsenal of art skills.

Pam is always studying and learning new crafts. Keep checking in for the new latest and greatest. Nobody puts Pam in a corner.   

 

 

Artist Statement:
I'm a Certified Zentangle Teacher (CZT27). I was certified in 2017 after years of practicing Zentangle on my own. Before learning Zentangle I could not draw more than stick figures. Because Zentangle is "One line at a time" it's the perfect way to ease into an art practice. Through Zentangle I learned composition, shading, and balance. After learning all I could from Zentangle, I taught myself charcoal, watercolor, and now I'm studying oil painting. Zentangle gave me all the confidence and foundation. I make it a daily practice to create art. I've studied Cristy Partridge and Maria Raczynska and many more outstanding teachers. This is not just a hobby for me. No, I'm obsessed with learning and there is so much to learn. I have so much to teach.

FlutteringWings is the name of our farm. After retiring from 9-5 my husband and I created a butterfly sanctuary in which we raise Monarch butterflies for release. This also gives me endless inspiration.

Part of my background comes from my seamstress Mother and Sister. Only instead of clothing I create art with fabric. Paper Piecing is a form of fabric art that I do enjoy and teach. What is seemingly complicated breaks down to easy peasy.
