PAM IN OTTAWA ART
Texture, colour, and the poetry of the natural world around us.
Hi, I'm Pamela Stewart a.k.a. ‘Pam in Ottawa’, a mixed media abstract painter from Ottawa (Kanata), Ontario. I am a mom of twins, a former indie filmmaker and magazine editor, and a long distance open water swimmer.
I am also an abstract expressionist artist who uses a diverse range of modern materials such as resin, alcohol ink, synthetic paper, broken mirror and more in combination with more traditional art materials to create heavily textured organic-inspired abstracts.

Artist Statement
I am increasingly preoccupied with the state of our earth, and humanity's effect on it. I crave open water, sand underfoot, a canopy of leaves breathing above me. When I enter my home studio, I intuitively reach for materials that call to mind the texture of our earth and the flow of water.
​
The body of work that has resulted from this conscious catharsis is both a balm for the soul and a call for others to escape and BREATHE - and find our reserves.
​
My work engages the senses and needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. As of this summer, you can see many of my works at the brand new Carleton Place Gallery, where I, along with three other local artists, have partnered to open this innovative space supporting local and living artists!

Thank you for supporting my art journey!
Modern & Dynamic Art for
your Spaces
Whether you want to connect to find out what art I have in current inventory, or connect to discuss custom-fit commission options, do not ever hesitate to reach out! Rather than Googling to see what shows or galleries might have what you are looking for, why not develop a personal relationship with an artist you trust to meet your needs and deliver an exciting and professional work or series of original works for your space?
​
ART COMMISSIONS
​
I have a no risk process for art commissions - First we will sit down together (in person in the Ottawa region, ZOOM or telephone call within Canada / US) and discuss what your needs are. I can work with your interior designer also to create a beautiful abstract art painting or series of paintings that will compliment your interior space & design.
Once we both feel satisfied that we know what you’d like for your space, I will provide a quote and discuss a timeline for delivery. My art commission prices for all original paintings are affordable as there is no difference in price from artwork already listed in my artist gallery. When we are both ready to get going on the commission, I will require a 50% down payment on the quoted price, HOWEVER you are under no obligation to purchase the abstract painting if you are not 100% completely satisfied when I deliver the completed work.
​
When your original painting is completed, I'll deliver the pieces along with an invoice for the remaining balance OR if out of town, send photos/video to ensure you love the finished works then arrange for shipping once payment has been received. Payment can be through cash, debit, credit, or EMT etc.
​
If you aren’t completely thrilled with your original one of a kind modern abstract work, no worries...you are NOT obligated to buy. I will either take notes & try again OR refund the original 50% deposit, and will sell the work instead at an art show or through one of the Art Galleries with which I am affiliated. To date, I haven’t had this happen.
