ART BY PAMELA TORRES

Pamela Torres is a happily married emerging artist currently living in New Port Richey, Florida. A Monmouth University graduate formerly from New Jersey, Pam has participated in various exhibits primarily in Carrollwood, Tampa and St. Petersburg.

Rather than paint, Pam developed a knack for creating eye-popping works by juxtaposing soft pastels with colored pencil, marker, and even liquid paper. She won third place in the St. Pete Lofts’ annual Valentween contest. Her “Butterfly Blessings” was judged and selected by TV horror host Dr. Paul Bearer II. 

Over the next few years, she competed in various contests and exhibits online. In 2023, she was selected as a finalist in two Women in Art contests, “Wild and Free” hosted by the Blue Space Gallery, and two Art-Collide shows themed “Life, Death & Love” and “Beautiful/Grotesque.” Between 2023 and 2024, Pam successfully had her art shown to wider audiences once on Influx Gallery’s website and three times by the Pearview Gallery. It was also in 2024 that her stylized gothic portrait of her and her husband Bobby, titled “We Belong...” won the October spot on Cure Today’s Healing Through Hues Calendar, a collection of randomly selected artworks dedicated to spreading cancer awareness. 

She also earned Special Recognition on Light Space & Time’s 13th “All Women” show, where 720 artists from all over the world competed. In the month of April, Pam attended the Spookala convention to give to the Boulet Brothers their own Supermonstermia fan portrait. In July of 2025, Pam was picked as a finalist in Fusion Art’s 7th Annual Women Artists exhibition and then she had one of her artworks accepted and posted on the Penn Journal of Arts and Sciences website. 

Currently, she is selling her art through Tee Public HERE
