Pamela Tarbell

As a musician strives for a variety of vibrations in sound, my goal is creating visual color vibrations. I greatly admire the paintings of Wassily Kandinsky in profession and thought. Kandinsky said. “Color provokes a psychic vibration. Color hides a power still unknown but real, which acts upon every part of the human body.” I explore different subject matter in my paintings with a need to always challenge myself with complex compositions and color combinations.

A graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design and a United States Art Embassy Artist. Tarbell exhibits nationally, and in 2023 had a solo exhibit at the Arnold Arboretum of Harvard University. In 2024, she was commissioned to paint the awards for the New Hampshire Committee for the Arts Gala Awards Celebration. Tarbell was owner-director of the Mill Brook Gallery & Sculpture Garden, Concord, for twenty-two years. Over the years she has several on numerous boards and committees advocating for the arts. Tarbell enjoys painting bright, complicated compositions. She hopes that the viewer will always continue to find interesting elements in her paintings.
