Welcome to Close to Home Studios

Close to Home Studios is the base for the creative pursuits of Pam Powell and includes a few images by her late husband Richard Custer.    Pam lives in the small coastal community of Gualala, California, where she is a member of the North Coast Artists Guild (www.northcoastartistguild.com) and the Discovery Gallery Artist Collective.   In 2024, the International Color Competition recognized Pam's work in the categories of Landscape, Wildlife, Americana, and Still Life.

Many of these images are available for purchase through Fine Art America at fineartamerica.com/profiles/6-pamela-powell.  If you're interested in images that aren't on Fine Art America, they can be added.

 Enjoy your visit to the site!  And thanks for your interest.
