Pamelina H. comes from a long line of artists and has been painting and drawing for as long as she can remember. Her first illustration was published in the ten pages of Vampiretta Magazine when she was only ten years old. Inspired and encouraged, she set her sights on becoming a commercial artist.
At the age of thirteen, she became a professional by earning money through embroidery and selling to a local boutique in Carmel, CA. At seventeen, she had her first paid illustrations under her belt with Gallery and Hooker Magazines.
She's worked within the music industry since the mid-80's by creating artwork for CDs, tour merchandise, concert laminates and charity giveaways. She's also painted musical instruments for people like Davey Johnstone, Motley Crue, Mick Fleetwood, Sheila E., Soundgarden and many others.
To date, she's painted over 2000 guitars for Fender, Ibanez, Dean, B.C. Rich and others. She's painted murals on motorcycles, helmets and cars for Shaquille O'Neal, Vince Neil, Brent Stait and many fine men & women of the Police and Fire Departments, from Los Angeles to New York.
Originals of her work been published in calendar form, as a poster, a puzzle, on body jewelry and of course, t-shirts.
She's currently selling prints and original artwork at conventions, galleries and art shows across the country and around the world. And if you don't blink, you'll see her poster, 400 Orgasms, in the greatest movie of all time, Phantoms.
She's been the subject of many articles in magazines ranging from Tattoo Savage to America West's In-flight magazine.
