Hi, I’m Abigale.
"I believe that what we surround ourselves with visually has an impact on our emotions. I want my artwork to breathe vitality into a room the way a bouquet of fresh flowers or a bowl of fruit does.”
Abigale Palmer holds degrees from Brigham Young University and the University of Utah. Her work explores the subtle moments of joy so easily missed in the rapid pace of modern life. Her use of unworldly color combinations applied to everyday objects and scenarios helps remind us how brilliant and delicious the ordinary can be. Abigale's mission with her work is to bring brilliant color and reminders of joyful experiences into our daily spaces.
