About Pamela McMahon

 
 
  • Biography
    I love vibrant colour and texture.

    My aim is to create exciting and uplifting artwork.   I work with acrylic paint, oil pastels, inks and collage in an intuitive way, rarely using brushes, preferring instead to use palette knives and rollers to make interesting patterns and textures.  

    I have been painting for very many years and have work in private collections across the UK, in Europe, the USA and New Zealand.  

    Please note that the list on the 'exhibitions' section is not comprehensive and not up to date, but it gives a flavour of some of the more prominent galleries I have shown work in.
