Determined - Sold for $1,600 to a collector in Canada Painting

SIAN PAMPELLONNE WAS BORN AN ARTIST. Actually, she was born an artist in a formidable line of artists. Now in the third generation, it came as little surprise that Sian would choose to pursue art. The domain of the painter is one where words are bound to fail. Their world is filled with a broad spectrum of colour, fluid shapes, and limitless boundaries. Sian Pampellonne is one artist who traverses this world frequently. She uses acrylics and mixed media to create intricate visual stories, each unique to its canvas. For her, art is catharsis. Her vivid and emotive pieces resonate deeply with their admirers, both those who fall in love in passing, and those who become avid collectors of her work. Though her recognizable artworks adorn the walls of many local and international collectors, each one is a piece of her story that will never quite be purged from her innately creative spirit. “As a visual artist, I consider myself simple. My work is unpretentious, and process driven. I generally ask questions of myself and others and paint that response. I have no preconceived notions, each piece is a journey of understanding, growth, and discovery. I always have a concept of what I wish to paint to convey my thoughts, but I am not exactly sure about ‘the what’ or where it will end up. Our dialogue informs the work. Therefore, my reflections will capture the essence of our dialogue. This makes the work exciting to me and I hope for the viewer as well, as what you see won’t be predictable or maybe it will. That is the thing, everyone’s perception comes from their personal experiences and view point but are we willing to listen, truly listen to each others view point without persecution. Being too honest can make everyone uncomfortable, including me, and I am acutely aware of this internal dialogue. But I am also very aware that in order for our perceived differences to lessen we all have to get a little uncomfortable. I have taken the position to paint my truths and let my work speak for how I feel about the time and space in which I presently live.” She continues to work both as a successful designer and an established artist.
