Pamela Montague was born in Southern Delaware in 1969 to a family
that embraced the arts, enabling her to discover her love for
the arts. Many childhood years where spent traveling the Eastern
Seaboard, the hills and mountains of Kentucky and the bayou lands
of Louisiana. Throughout her life, a camera was always in her
hands. As she grew to love the outdoors and vast scenery of various
landscapes, photography seemed to be a natural reaction to her
for capturing her visions. Attending the Art Institute of Philadelphia
helped channel her desire to create. Ultimately, she is reaching
new heights within the photographic profession.
Her black and white collections are on exhibit in Delaware,
Maryland and Pennsylvania, as well as her commissioned pieces
being in numerous states within the United States. Her signature
style is the classic black and white art form of photography,
hers reflecting florals, landscapes and hand colored images; known
as her Oil and Emulsions. Macro photography is undoubtedly her
favorite way of capturing images. It challenges the viewer to
literally observe objects so closely that you can discover the
hidden form of their make-up. Two images , Sugared Magnolia and
Unfolding have been juried into numerous East Coast Exhibits and
group shows including the Washington Gallery of Photography in
Bethesda, MD and The Robeson Gallery at Penn State University.
Pamela was a recipient of a Delaware Division of Arts Opportunity
Grant that enabled her to participate in an invitational traveling
exhibit entitled "Treasures of the Land; Delaware Barns and
Outbuildings", alongside 13 emerging and professional artists.
During the Spring of 2003, a dream came true as she opened her
gallery, Lightspun Gallery, located in downtown Rehoboth Beach,
Delaware.
During the winter of 2004, Montague released a line of custom
designed stationery, A Sandy Soiree, to the bridal market. The
stationery is very popular for beach weddings and destination
weddings. She prides her stationery as being very earth friendly.
Using recycled and post recycled paper and natural sparkling sand,
the sand being her signature in all designs, she is staying true
to her belief of reducing, recycling and reusing in a very natural
manner.
