I Graduated from Parsons School of Design, with a background in realism, and an expertise in traditional oil portraits. “As I evolved as an artist, I began to see the world through a new and exciting lens. I discovered that I could apply the traditional techniques that I was trained in, which at times felt constrictive, and learned to enjoy the playfulness of creating large format abstract concepts. Instead of rendering the life out my subjects, I attempt to capture the spirit and soul of whatever I paint.” -CRAIG PALMER
