I create a safe and joyful space for exploring how to create art and connect the non-verbal emotional side of our brains to the linear. My classes are like art therapy sessions, and students walk out of my class serene, invigorated and carrying a finished painting.
I paint what i see in my neighborhood as i work to find beauty in my immediate surroundings.
Pam Trueblood
My studio/gallery is located south of Santa Fe in a small casita facing the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and each day I am astonished at the passage of the sun as my studio is on an east/west orientation.
From the soft rose morning skies, brilliant sunshine, and deep purple shadows to the golden light of sunset, dark skies, and colorful foliage I have a rich source of subject matter. When painting, I translate this subject matter into contemporary landscape painting... enhancing color, simplifying design, and using loose painterly style to create something fresh and new and a reflection of our high desert plateau location.

I had the most fabulous time in a private lesson with Pam Trueblood!
"The lesson was tailored to my skill level. Pam explained and demonstrated the process really well and I learned how to paint a landscape from start to finish! I left feeling happy and confident that I could create a painting on my own at home using the techniques that I learned with Pam."
