About The Artwork

A free flowing pencil study. I love the emotion in this pose and have tried to simplify it down to its very essence - less is more. If I'd filled it all in, the lower, less-important parts would compete with the focal point (largely the facial expression and suggestion of pose). I have tried to play-down the unimportant parts bringing focus to the pose and expression of effort with the minimal detail. The eye is drawn to the upper body and hands. And, the brain - having been given just enough clues - fills in the rest. An example of 'less is more'.

Overview As you can see I specialise in capturing the female form - subtle, classical nudes in oil, charcoal, graphite and red chalk. Born in Henley, I spent most of my adult life in London, Hong Kong and Dublin. I am now happily settled in Windsor. I abandoned a career in publishing at the age of 40 to follow my lifelong passion - drawing and painting. I trained at a leading art college in London and was then taught by Michael Clark, who knew Francis Bacon very well (and incidentally the only person to draw him in the flesh). My work has been included in the books ‘Images of Women in Art’ and ‘Musings of Miss Yellow’. As well as being a stay-at-home Dad, I now paint from my Windsor studio and run my own life-drawing classes at the Windsor Art Centre. Testimonial “Patrick Palmer is a modern master of figurative art. His post-romantic nudes are not only exquisitely painted, but also dreamy, delicate and suggestive. They only hint at sensuality and evoke fantasy in the subtle and elegant manner that distinguishes art from pornography.” Claudia Moscovici, Co-founder of postromanticism.com and art critic (“Romanticism and Post-romanticism”, Lexington Books, 2007).
