Osprey Hunting | Oil | 24" x 36"

Artist: Pamela GaVette

Artist Statement: "I was born at Fort Campbell, Kentucky on 20 March 1950 to an Army Military Family, so early on, moving was a normal activity for an “Army Brat” like me. When I was six years old, out family moved to Bad Nauheim, Germany where Private Elvis Presley was also assigned which was exciting. Adding to that, summer vacations were spent touring world-famous museums in France, Italy, Germany and adjourning countries, viewing work by Michaelangelo, Da Vinci, Van Gogh, and more. This early introduction to the great artists changed my life. I knew I wanted to be an artist when I grew up.

After Germany, our family moved to Fort Rucker, Alabama and I finished my education with a Masters in Secondary Education and a minor/major in Art/Math from Troy University, Alabama. After college I wanted to go overseas so I pursued a career working for the Department of Defense as an Arts and Crafts Director for the Army and Air Force in Korea, Italy, Germany and the USA with lots of travel in between. I retired after 35 years working for the Department of Defense and moved to Panama City Beach and continue to do artwork daily."
