Pamela Silin-Palmer began drawing when she was just a child.
For Pamela, nature is the source of all design and beauty.

"I look at the relationship between objects, light and shadow, and play with this visual information with inspiration. Photographic memory allows me to visualize my pictures before they are drawn. I mix images and effects in my mind and then paint them as I imagine their."
Pamela Silin-Palmer

Living in the South of France in the 70s, she often visited Italy... where she was stunned by the atmosphere of grace and beauty of Florence: Pamela, like most people, was fascinated by the artists of the Italian Renaissance. She realized that the decorative arts were as important to the overall quality of life as the fine arts. Pamela was also influenced by the French Tapestry, commonly called mille fleur, meaning "a thousand flowers"; a similar style of copying found in Persian and Indian art; the 17th century Dutch still life painters, who focused on the intricate details of insects, flowers and animals emerging from dark backgrounds; She admires the wit and magic of 19th century English illustrators such as Sir John Tenniel and Arthur Rackham, and most notably the decorative illustrator, William Morris.
Pamela believes that her work, as a transmitter of visual energy, conveys not only her respect for these painters and styles, but also that she is a product of her own time and reality...

Pamela founded Faunus Decorative Arts Studio with partner, Karen Carey, in 1976. Their one-of-a-kind painted furniture, murals, pottery, backdrops, rugs and fabrics have been featured in premier designer showrooms, galleries for the past 30 years in nearly every major city in the United States of America.
