Note: Pam Carter was born in Tanganyika, East Africa to an Austrian mother and Scottish father. At the age of thirteen, she came to Scotland where she schooled at Bearsden Academy. She graduated from Glasgow School of Art in the seventies. "My main inspiration as an artist is in the Scottish landscape and seascape. I enjoy using colour to define contours, structure and changing light sequences. I search out specific viewpoints. I am equally inspired by the rugged isolation of the Western Isles and the dramatic viewpoints of the Eastern coastline. I work predominantly in oil". Pam Carter is unquestionably one of Scotland's most popular and successful living artists. She has won numerous awards and prizes, has always received significant media attention and has been the subject of many magazine features and has several tv appearances. Her work is widely exhibited but rarely appears at auction. The most recent three examples of Pam Carter's oil paintings to be offered in our auctions achieved hammer prices of £2000 (April 2022), £1900 (June 2021) and £1800 (September 2020).
