Hawaii Watercolor Artist Since 1987

  Garry has been an artist since a very young age,  he has worked with oils and acrylics, pastel and charcoal in the past, but always knew that watercolors were his medium of choice.  Garry Palm has been painting  with watercolors professionally for over 37 years. 

Growing up in Minnesota, Garry and his wife Cynthia were married in 1985 and came to Hawaii on their honeymoon. They fell in love with the Aloha Spirit, and moved to Hawaii in 1987. Moving to Hawaii with his wife Cynthia in 1987 gave him the multiple inspirations throughout the Hawaiian Islands to go full time as a watercolor artist, letting him create thousands of images over his career.

Garry & Cynthia live on the Big Island of Hawaii, and have two grown children, with their first grandchild born in January, 2026.
