Greats Lakes Area<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The images in this series are dedicated to twelve regional priority species identified by the Chicago Wilderness Organization. It is believed the endangerment of these species will have significant impact on regional biodiversity.  They are dying or relocating from the Great Lakes area in alarming numbers.  Scientists and citizen-scientists are working to protect and restore their populations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great Lakes Piping Plovers, are not on this list, but were added with the permission of Monty and Rose, local plover superstars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Great Lakes series brings Pam\u2019s process to a refined artistic level. A preliminary composition is painted on canvas including a fully developed image of the subject animal. This painting is coated with clear latex, then a layer of black paint is added completely eliminating the image from view.  It is at this stage that a new image is revealed by tearing, scraping, and working back into the canvas to create the compositions, textures and details seen in these images.  Please click on them to enlarge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rusty Patched Bumble Bee is the first insect in the continental United States to be federally listed as critically endangered. Their population has declined 91% since the mid 1990\u2019s. Federal protection should help their survival as well as education campaigns encouraging citizens to use native plantings in gardens and other habitats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
