Hi! I am Pamela Kraft

I’m a painter known for capturing the distinctive light and vibrant colors of the American West.

After earning my BFA in Visual Arts from Michigan State University, I moved west to Wyoming, where the landscape and community inspired my signature style.

I married a rancher and taught art in rural Wyoming for over 30 years and was honored as Wyoming Art Educator of the Year, a Fulbright Scholar, and received the Milken National Educator and Robert Rauschenberg Foundation Power of Art Awards, among others. During that time, I raised my two daughters, who are now grown.

Now That I have retired from teaching, I focus on my art and split my time between a cattle ranch in Wyoming and a home in Congress, Arizona.

My works have been showcased at venues such as the University of Wyoming Art Museum, The Desert Caballeros Western Museum, the Wickenburg Art Center, Gallery 123 in Casper, WY, and Rock, Paper, Scissors Gallery in Cheyenne, WY. have received numerous Best of Show and People’s Choice Awards.
