Hi, I’m Pam Derrickson, a native Virginian with a lifelong passion for creativity, teaching, and inspiring others. After many years serving in Fairfax County Public Schools, I relocated to Central Virginia near Lake Anna, where a slower pace of life allowed me to fully commit to my artistic journey.

Over the past five years, I’ve created a wide range of paintings and drawings featured in studios and galleries throughout the region. Blending art with my love of teaching, I’ve also led hundreds of classes and workshops, always striving to make art accessible, enjoyable, and empowering.

This website was created with one simple intention — to inspire others to slow down, create, and reconnect.
