ARTIST STATEMENT
What is the best use to all the stacks of white papers? ART!
I started sketching at age 5 and started painting one year after. I love nature and wilderness. I love
drawing and painting different aspects of nature and wilderness, including animals and fantasy animals
(such as dragons). I use art to express my creativity and my love for these animals. I also use art to
express my feelings. I often draw or paint when I am bored or when I have some free time (and it
happens a lot, by the way though I am not usually bored). I love art and the tools that make it. I hope
everyone love art as much as I do. I hope everyone love nature and life as much as I do.
ARTIST BIO
A self-taught watercolorist, Pam Baumeister has been painting for over 25 years. Inspired by the delight and wonder of childhood, her work focuses on capturing moments of nostalgia, ranging from classic cars and vintage toys, to scenes from childhood.
In addition to participating in a variety of public art markets every year, her work has been featured at the Sears Art Museum and the JKR Gallery. In 2016, she started receiving commission requests, and so began selling her work online. She shares her art online with social media fans, and at www.pambaumeister.com.
In addition to making memories with her own family of four girls and her husband, Pam enjoys skiing, yoga, reading a good book, and traveling.

The Sprague Branch's high-gabled English Tudor style building has served the Sugar House community for three generations. The building was selected by the American Library Association in 1935 as the "Most Beautiful Branch Library in America." The two-level facility was opened in 1928 and has been renovated several times as use continues to increase. An expansion project to add a new public meeting room and remodel the building was completed in April 2001, which increased the square footage to 13,058. As the Sugar House shopping district sprouted up, the Sprague Branch continues to hold its historical charm and provide community members with outstanding public library services. Free parking is available to the east and south of the building, and free wi-fi access is provided throughout the library.
