Busy in the Studio

Written By Brent Palmer

Spring has been incredibly busy. Between my day job, climbing trips to City of Rocks, Idaho, and Moab, Utah, I’ve spent many hours in the studio refining my watercolor figure-painting techniques. Recently, I completed several paintings that explore heavy pigment application, soft transitions created through delicate washes, and selective pigment lifting. I’ve been especially pleased with the results in Filter and Summer Solstice #2.

You can find me at Park Silly on June 14 and the Bohemian Bum Farmers Market on July 5. I’ve also applied to several art festivals throughout the summer and fall and will share additional show dates as they are announced.

Thank you for your continued support!-Brent

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my website.

My name is Brent Palmer, and I am an artist based in Centerville, Utah. I graduated from the University of Utah's School of Fine Arts in 1991, where I studied painting and drawing. Having lived in Utah for most of my life, I've been fortunate to explore nearly every corner of this remarkable state. Outside the studio, I enjoy rock climbing, canyoneering, skiing, and kayaking. Each year, I also spend time in Moab and in the Netherlands visiting family.

My paintings are inspired by the places I travel, the people I meet, and the quiet moments that shape my perspective. Painting is both a creative pursuit and an intellectual one—a way to explore theme, composition, the science of light, and personal reflection.

I hope you enjoy your visit and find something here that resonates with you.
