 1970 to 1977 Pacita's plans changed radically when in 1970 on her way to Spain, she decided to stay in San Francisco. It was here that she mixed with San Francisco's art community and began to paint. Between obtaining her masters degree in Asian history at the University of San Francisco and her contact with the art world, painting gradually became not simply an incidental activity, but eventually her way of life and profession. In 1975, Pacita began her first formal art training at the Corcoran School of Art in Washington, D.C., an experience which was to have a significant influence on her development as an artist. By 1977, Pacita was in New York studying painting at the Arts Students League. After that she was ready to venture overseas with her canvas and paints. |
