Petra Palmeri

Painter

I discovered my passion for painting four years ago. Although I am a self-taught artist, I have been drawing since I can remember. 

I hold a particular interest in still life and I love painting animals. I have painted in acrylics and watercolours but I prefer to work with oils and pastels. 

I am a member of the local artist group "Sarnia Arts and Crafts", I have exhibited regularly with the group and as solo artist twice at the Guernsey Picture Framers.

Two of my oils have been published in "Artist and Illustrators" magazine, "Lemon tea" in the November 2011 issue and my oil "Physalis" in the August 2014 issue

Another of my oils "The garden strawberries" has been published in "The Artist" magazine, May 2015 issue, as the month's editor's choice. I won the "Brian Pinero Terris" trophy at Eisteddfod 2015, for my oil "Quinces"
