Artwork Description

Smeaton is a village in the Central Highlands of Victoria. Gold was discovered here in 1851 and the gold of the autumn leaves reminds me of the gold taken from the ground here. The bridge in the painting crosses Birch Creek and leads to Anderson's Mill, an historic flour mill on the banks of the creek.
The autumn tones would suit a dark, neutral toned wall and make the colours really pop or a lighter neutral toned wall of a living space.

Artist Bio

Pam is a highly regarded professional artist with a diverse background in both photography and painting. After earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Tasmania, Pam established and ran a successful photography studio in Hobart for 20 years, building a reputation for artistic excellence and professional expertise.
Following retirement from photography, Pam turned to painting, channeling a long-held passion into a new creative pursuit. Now based in country Victoria, Pam works from a small home studio, where the influence of years of photographic practice continues to shape the artistic process.
Pam’s photography background informs her painting on multiple levels—most notably in the use of light to evoke mood, the application of colour, and an acute understanding of composition, perspective, and point-of-view. This deep understanding of visual storytelling shines through in her work, with a particular affinity for wide-angle views inspired by her landscape photography roots.
A deep love for nature serves as a continual source of inspiration, and Pam finds creativity in the beauty and details of the world around her.
