Welcome to John Palmer Art

Whether the design is on canvas, wood or paper, John Ross Palmer's artwork is always a testament to his energy, creativity and passion for life.  As Palmer the individual continues to grow, so does his art.  From what started as two dimensional abstract paintings on canvas, his depth of art now includes original artwork on custom boxes, furniture, ceiling murals, salvage wood and neon. His inspiration for the art comes from his travels abroad to Greece, Austria, Spain, Japan and South Africa, as well as his local Houston Heights community's desire to honor history.  Palmer, a contemporary, abstract artist is represented in fine art galleries in cities including Scottsdale, Seattle, Boston, New Orleans and Palm Desert, California.  Palmer's art movement, Escapism, allows the viewer to ease into the world of the abstract by combining his strong, vibrant brushstrokes with subtle aspects of realism.  Escapism also refers to Palmer's life mission to destroy the stereotype of the struggling artist.
