About the Artist – Elizabeth S. Palmer

As a child, Elizabeth S. Palmer, the Artist, discovered her voice in paint and pencil. With no TV to compete with, imagination became her entertainment source. At five years old, she showcased work in family art exhibits, and by fourth grade, she entered her first contest and won it, creating a cartoon for a local bank. Her love for art only increased as she created school play programs, painted greeting cards by hand, and even painted murals on her grandmother's walls.

Her formal education started with art courses at the Rochester Museum of Art and continued through courses in Art History and Studio Art at Colby College. Selling hand-painted goods in various gift shops, including the League of NH Craftsmen, as an up-and-coming Maine artist, she continued to pursue an Associate's Degree in Studio Art at the University of New Hampshire, where she began studying watercolor and oil painting in 1990.

Throughout her years, Elizabeth Artist has displayed her work in various galleries and institutions throughout the nation. Her artwork has appeared in private collections throughout the nation, and her Kayaks have a permanent spot in Boston Children's Hospital. Since relocating to Maine in 2016, she has been a noted artist in the area, with Honorable Mentions for her work at Boothbay Region Art Foundation.

Guided by mood, rhythm, color, and light play, Palmer's Paintings turn the ordinary into enchanting works of art. From landscape to still life, she seeks to evoke feelings and prompt others to notice the beauty in the everyday.

With Palmer Art, she aspires to awaken a new vision & one in which the world is a canvas full of color, motion, and limitless possibilities.
