Bio

American folk artist Patricia Palermino has been publishing her unique
collection of prints and note cards for 15 years. Her works are sold in
numerous galleries and are in many private and public collections including
the White House and the American Museum in Bath, England.
Using vibrant colors and a cast of playful characters, Palermino creates an
array of magical scenes that combine a whimsical spirit with a hint of
nostalgia. Each of her pieces is created in her Alexandria studio and proudly
reflects the character and charisma found in many of the United State's most popular cities and landmarks. The happy and detailed images entice viewers of all ages, evoking smiles and pleasant memories.

Palermino's artwork has appeared on many posters and publications
including the program cover of the National Easter Egg Roll at the White
House, the UNICEF Corporate Christmas Card Collection, Historic Alexandria, Gadsby's Tavern Museum, Gunston Hall Museum, Woodlawn Plantation Museum, Winterthur Museum's Point to Point Races, United Card and Exxon of Japan, the National Horticultural Society and others. Original paintings are sold by the Frank J. Miele Gallery in New York City.
