Meet Angela Palmore

Angela grew up near the beautiful Cascade Mountains in Washington State. Her early artistic endeavors were creating collage pieces, writing, and singing. When she was 22 she took up oil painting for the first time painting a portrait of her mom, which showed an exceptional likeness and feeling.

She went to work in real estate, but art, music and writing were always there in the background. In 2024, deciding to head her life in a different direction, she joined the Milan Art Mastery Program with the main goal being to become a better artist. She ended up increasing her skills and selling her first paintings before graduating in 2025.

She lives by a motto given to her by
her dad at a moment in a long distance bicycle ride, when she wanted to stop pushing up a hill. Exhausted,
she said “ Dad, I can’t go anymore.”
“Dig down deep!” he replied.
“I don’t have anything more to give!”
she said, her energy depleted.
He said 5 life-changing words she remembers to this day
“There is always more inside.”

Angela is married to her wonderful husband, Marc. They have many plans, but one of them is to travel the US
in a motor-home and see all the
National Parks and probably
the largest ball of twine.


NEVER GIVE UP ~~~ THERE IS ALWAYS MORE INSIDE ~~~

Angela’s studio is a working studio,
uncluttered only between projects.
Her sketchbooks consist of thoughts,
thumbnail sketches and future series ideas.
Notes and printed references are pinned to the walls.

Artist Statement

My art is the manifestation of my childhood belief in the impossible
and my daily fight to retain that idealism and beauty
in a world that wants me to grow up. 

While I am working on several series at once,
they all unite to tell the story of living life to the fullest.

It’s about coming to the edge of a moment and leaping into adventure.

Life is full of things, wonderful and horrible,
but I paint that moment I want to live in.

That audaciously brave moment where we seize time and won’t let go
until we experience everything wonderful it can give us
or that moment during the storm where we steel ourselves
and determine nothing will break us.

My art is about passion for life and hope for the future.

I am honored that you have chosen to come with me
on life’s creative journey.
