PAM RIDLER
As an artist, I explore the vibrant interplay between nature and emotion, drawing inspiration from the lush landscapes that evoke a sense of serenity and wonder. My passion for the natural world is evident in the vivid colors and dynamic forms that populate my canvases. Each piece serves as a portal of the landscapes around me, inviting viewers to experience the beauty and tranquility that these environments offer. I am captivated by the way light dances on water and how the intricate details of foliage can tell a story of resilience and harmony.
My artistic journey is fueled by a desire to convey the emotional depth found in these serene settings, allowing the viewer to connect with their own memories and dreams. As a young woman becoming a wife, a mother, and a college student left little time for my creative outlets. For more than 30 years, my work career was focused as an executive with chamber of commerce organizations in leading teams and advocating for small businesses and industries. Now in my retirement I've become an impasto-artist, I aim to express the joy and peace that nature can bring, while also highlighting the delicate balance that exists within our ecosystems. Influenced by both the vibrant hues of landscapes and the emotional resonance of personal experiences, my work embodies a playful yet empathetic approach.
I strive to create a dialogue between the viewer and the artwork, encouraging a moment of reflection and connection. Ultimately, my art is a celebration of the beauty that surrounds us, a reminder to pause and appreciate the cascading dreams that nature presents.
