Donald Pallia is an artist with many facets. Always interested in creative expression, he pulled from his experiences in engineering and art training for his inspirations’.  You will find him using metal, ceramics, wood and canvas for his paintings.  Each media inspires a different subject matter.  His current Fine Art media is acrylics on canvas for its drying time and flexibility over Oil.  

 “My paintings always have a sense of whimsy either in the subject matter or the title”.  Don paints Wine Art; Decorative Art; Garden Art and Figurative subjects in a minimalist style.  He has studied under Susan Sprigg, Lorenzo, and Heather Roddy. 

In 2010 Don, joined the Sargent Art Group; he has exhibited and sold his art in over 26 Southern California venues such as the San Diego Museum Artist League; Carlsbad/Oceanside art gallery; Oceanside Museum Artist Alliance, and the Redlands Art Association.  Don is currently represented by the Del Mar Art Center Gallery.
