Meet the Artist
Pam Miles
Welcome to my art studio, Her Creation Station!
When people ask me what type of art I do, I always chuckle.
Many of my friends would answer that question for me with,
"What doesn't Pam do?!"
Hi, I'm Pam, and I am an artist in denial!
Ever had imposter syndrome, where you see others' art and say,
"Now that's an artist!"?
That's me too!
Today, I would call myself a "Geometric Folk Artist."
I am currently focused on traditional writing forms, many ancient forms which are disappearing:
Mandalas and Pysanky.
I am a geometric folk artist writing in wax and symmetry - reviving ancient art forms for modern souls. My handwritten geometric folk art is inspired by ancient symbols, storytelling, and tradition -with the hope for peace, mindfulness, and connection to those who encounter these unique mediums. My primary current mediums include pysanky & batik eggs, and colored pencil mandalas.
My pysanky (also known as Ukrainian eggs) and batik eggs (contemporary designs & mandalas) are made using real eggshells, from button quail to ostrich size, melted beeswax for masking the colors, and aniline dyes for the color. Each layer of beeswax and dye is applied to the eggshell in procession and then melted off at the final stage and then varnished.
My colored pencil mandala drawings are done with compass and ruler on paper. No AI used. My creativity of combining tradition and whimsical nature images is intended to bring joy and calm.
So, come join me in the adventure of creating artistic creations!
