Art has always been a form of healing for Pam. Growing up in a domestic violent household, she would often draw to find her calming center. After major knee surgery and brain surgery, Pam was "doodling" mandalas or painting rocks during her recovery time.
From a very young age, Pam was often found creating things with her hands; from crocheting and knitting, to drawing. Today, Pam's common mediums are: quilting, pysanky (Ukrainian Eggs), drawing, painting, and mixed media. She has taught hundreds of students the art of pysanky and in 2007, became one of five in the world certified as a Master of Pysanky by the IEAG (International Egg Art Guild). In 2008, Pam was invited to present an egg to First Lady Laura Bush.
Pam's quilts have received numerous awards at the state fair and have been used for auction in multiple fundraisers for her community.
