His dramatic, emotionally charged paintings skillfully capture the light and atmosphere of the wild Cornish coast. Andrew Palmer. Artists Statement. April 2012. "I am very influenced by the sea and have always been fascinated by its power and ever changing moods. I immerse myself in the dramatic land and seascapes that surround me in Cornwall and initially make studies,in oil on canvas or board, painting quickly using bold and vigorous brushstrokes to express my subjective response to the location. In the studio I work from these studies on larger paintings which are often more abstract and expressive, while still conveying the atmosphere and specific sense of place of the original subject." facebook: andrewjohnpalmer
