Tom Palmore’s art defies easy classification. It’s wildlife but, to say the
least, it’s whimsical wildlife. With titles like Bart the Bear, Leopard at
Twilight and Gunsmoke (picturing a bison against a classic Western backdrop),
Tom takes a different look at fauna, fowl and farm animals as well as man’s
best friend. His paintings are big, bold and graphic—but highly detailed which
gives them a look of realism infused with a touch of surrealism.
With an education that includes the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in
Philadelphia, the ongoing results of Palmore’s dedication to his art are
impressive. His works are in the collections of such highly esteemed museums
as The Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of Art, and major
corporate and private collections including AT&T, Price Waterhouse and Stanley
Marcus, founder of Neim.
