About
Intrigued by the revelation of the human spirit, I seek to capture and intuitively express the essence of life through the process of putting paint to canvas or paper. My desire is to unveil Truth which at times tends to be elusive and somewhat hidden until forced to be reckoned with in one form or another. In my work the unveiling occurs only when the illusion of control is released and the paint is able to freely dance on the canvas with ever-changing line, shape, texture and color. Although choices present themselves throughout the process -what to keep and of what to let go, I am gently reminded that it is in releasing that true freedom is found.
You are invited to experience the journey, gifts and joys of life through my paintings. ~ Pam Austin
