Artist: Pam Carter

Pam Carter was born in Tanganyika, East Africa in 1952 to an Austrian mother and Scottish father. She graduated from Glasgow School of Art in the seventies and began a career in teaching.

In 1996 Pam won the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons Award at the Royal Glasgow Institute. Two years later Carter was awarded First Prize at the Paisley Institute. Her contemporary paintings have also been selected for the Laing Calendar.

Pam Carter finds subject matter around the rugged West Scottish Coast with its isolated cottages and wild colours of the machair and brachen. She also paints East Scottish Coastal scenes with majestic cliffs, fishing villages and farm land.

Pam Carter loves to stand on a high viewpoint. From there she can see the magnitude of the Scottish Landscape. Sunspots move across the valleys. And the forbidding trip to the Western Scottish Isles brings great reward with its sweeping golden sands and turquoise tranquil waters which is almost idyllically tropical.

Scottish locations such as Skye, Lewis, Harris and the Uists have been favourite islands for Carter to visit. Pam has also produced contemporary paintings of Tiree and Coll. Tiree in particular offers idyllic settings. The Island's architecture is like a museum of the Scottish past with wonderful crofters cottages sitting perched on the most beautiful of beaches

A sense of place is important in Pam Carter's paintings but she does not seek to capture a scene with complete accuracy. Sometimes it is the elements and the untamed force of nature that inspire Carter paintings, but more than anything it is the essential quality of light which can be in the Scottish land and seascape. Pam often interprets the scene with abstract elements. She translates the light in terms of contrast and colour - often bold but always with subtlety and balance. Pam Carter ultimately wants to create a visual sensation and pleasing image in her contemporary paintings.

Pam Carter has exhibited at numerous solo art exhibitions throughout the British Isles and in the USA. Her paintings have featured in several group art shows including the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) and the RGI

In addition to British Art Gallery Red Rag Pam Carter paintings can be found at other leading Scottish Art Galleries including: Edinburgh Art Galleries, Glasgow Art Galleries and Highland Art Galleries.
