About this artwork
Absence, emotion, hope. Tonality, contrast.
It’s very important not to just fill a painting in and in my opinion what makes a picture a work of art, is the decisions the maker makes along the way – for example, playing down or omitting unimportant bits and focusing on more important areas. This way you can change the balance of the image – detail from less interesting parts do not compete with the more interesting/important parts. I have learnt… that the mind tends to fill in blank parts as long as it is given enough information and knowing the moment when you get to this point is key. The less is more principal.

« As an artist, you have to create not just recreate »
Patrick Palmer is an experienced British painter who has exhibited his work throughout the UK. He previously worked in publishing before deciding to turn to art full-time, and has since been busy composing figurative pieces that focus on the human form. Primarily producing post-romantic nudes amidst a haze of soft colour combinations, he seeks to capture senses of delicacy, sensuality, and elegant suggestiveness.
