One of my favorite NEO artists, Pamela Dodds, has been awarded an Individual Support Grant from the Adolph and Esther Gottlieb Foundation. I'm proud to say Evelyn and I have one of Pamela's inspiring and impressive linoleum cut prints in our collection, Drift. Perhaps it is time for more area collectors to seek out her work!

	Excerpts from Reviews "Printmaker Pamela Dodds employs a bold linearity...to create a world of deeply human and healing interaction...Her woodcut series - portraying bodies lovingly entwined with trees and earth while surrounded by the materials of war - is expertly under-patterned by the grain of the wood..." R.M. Vaughan The Globe and Mail, Toronto “[In] her large, bright canvases...there is some very serious content being explored ....Dodds goes right to the heart of emotional matters which are her real content ...[In the painting ‘Dressing,’] we seem to be privy to an intimate, private moment between two people....Formalism weds with story-telling intent to striking effect.” Shawn Hill Bay Windows, Boston/New England “Pamela Dodds’ paintings depict critical emotional moments in the lives of their subjects...Men, women and children seem tuned to inner thoughts...” Christine Temin, ‘Critic’s Tip’ The Boston Globe “Pamela Dodds investigates psychologically charged moments in human dramas fraught with ambiguity.” Joanne Silver The Boston Herald "Dodds' small, four-part pastel and charcoal series of a woman awakened by weird noises immediately and realistically evokes themes of fear and solitude" Amy Finch Boston Phoenix “The effect is at once powerful and familiar.” Michael Mayo South End News
