Putin Takes a Ride

Palmore has a deep respect for animals, which feature prominently in his work. His drawings and paintings often show various species in surreal or whimsical settings, wittily juxtaposing the realism of the animal depictions with imaginative backgrounds. Photographs of toads inspired this work; these denote Vladimir Putin being “supported” by Donald Trump. Of his works in general, the artist has stated, “They’re about other earthlings that we share this planet with…and about our relationship with them.”
