Nancy
Palmie, Artist
A
few years ago, Nancy Palmie retired as a corporate technical writer. Through patient instruction and guidance from
a talented local artist, she started painting watercolors. In no time, she discovered how satisfying and
fulfilling it is to create something beautiful in its expression. Something unique to herself. Art.
Primarily,
Nancy creates paintings one can hang on the wall, using mixed media on hot- and
cold-pressed watercolor paper. (For pure
enjoyment and instant gratification, however, she also paints kindness rocks
and dabbles in fluid alcohol ink with heat on gesso boards). Friends and family hide things they don’t
want painted, because nothing is off-limits!

Nancy’s
love of green, rolling hills and hard-working farmers began in her home state
of Wisconsin, where she was born and raised.
Spending the better part of her adult life in Colorado gave her a pure and
deep appreciation for the awe-inspiring, spectacular beauty of the mountains
and lakes, the cerulean sky and titanium-white clouds, the diverse wildlife,
and of course the ever-changing weather that changes from sunny cadmium yellow
to angry slate gray in the blink of an eye.
Now
a resident of Sonora, California, Nancy’s colorful paintings pay homage to her
homeland, and continue to capture the recent road trips that she and her
husband have taken through the United States and beyond. Through the lens of her new-found passion,
Nancy’s style reflects picturesque landscapes, flowers, birds, nature, weather,
and light. Of one thing she is
certain: In this vast and beautiful
world, Nancy will never run out of things to paint.
