Joachim McMillan Visual Artist

Joachim McMillan - Visual Artist.

Artist statement: “I want my paintings to have a feeling of action like a motion picture or with a motion effect."

Subjects: Paintings with e-motions.

Joachim McMillan: Born on the Caribbean Island of Grenada, West Indies. I am a self taught artist. My father, Loftus McMillan, is my biggest influence. I started painting with watercolors, acrylic for galleries in Grenada. I also drew cartoons for two of Grenada main newspapers as early as 15years old. In my early 20's, I migrated to New York City, where I got into study groups for emerging artist. I now reside in Oregon, where I collaborate with local artists and showcase my work at various galleries.

I paint with thoughts from my mind and with 'e-motions'. My paintings are an extract of action, energy and motion. I paint oils with the pallet knife, a style I like because it is just easier to work or manage. I like painting wet, it allows me to create motion in my paintings. My growing list of collectors love my new style. Seeing is believing! My aim is to be a world renowned artist with a unique style.

While growing up in Washington, D.C., Pamela Hilliard had two major interests which she wanted to pursue-writing and drawing. For her, these were the things that created joy, fed the spirit, and provided a sense of accomplishment. Although she pursued an education in writing, earning a BA degree in English from the University of Maryland, art remained a preoccupation. As a result, Pamela began producing a unique body of work focusing on expression through body language.

Using pen & ink with a particular concentration in pointillism, Pamela creates black and white images that are elongated, fluid, and visually delicate. With the integration of color in her work, through acrylics, Pamela presents a bolder effect without loosing the delicate style. "In working with acrylics, I have a broader range to create fresh and new designs and this presents an enjoyable challenge." Collectively, the themes of her work celebrate love, music, dance, fashion, a liberated spirit, and a positive sense of self.

Many of Pamela's images are quite whimsical-displaying a lot of attitude. "These are always a lot of fun to do, and I can think of no better place where one can get away with so much attitude than through visual imaging." She is a past recipient of The National Coalition of 100 Black Women, Inc. Arts & Culture Award.
