About Me

My name is Luke Palmer, aka Acerone, an artist and teacher from Bristol. In 2016 I discovered a new way to make collaborative artworks and have been sharing the technique with artists, young people, hospital inpatients, adults with learning difficulties and disabilities, business professionals and local community groups ever since.

Last year, I started Collaborative Painting UK - a social enterprise using creative arts to bring people together and create unique works of art.

Now i would like YOU to get involved and help make the next event in in Bristol during Easter 2019 a huge success!
