I'm William Palm, a professional representational painter working in watercolor and oil. My work celebrates the poetry of place—coastal towns, scenic railroads, twilight skies—and I bring the same passion and care to teaching as I do to painting. With over a decade of experience in both creating and exhibiting fine art, I specialize in helping students unlock their creativity, sharpen their technical skills, and build confidence in their artistic voice.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a practicing artist looking to deepen your craft, my lessons are personalized, supportive, and grounded in classical technique with a contemporary perspective. I’ve taught workshops, mentored private students, and exhibited in group and solo shows—so I know how to guide you not just in technique, but in developing a body of work and artistic identity.

* Clear, patient instruction in watercolor and/or oil painting
* Guidance in composition, color theory, light, and texture
* Tips on how to evoke emotion and narrative in your work
