Arriving in Australia in 2008, Palacios was influenced by a number of great Australian landscape photographers. Fascinated by colour, painting and drawing, he has chosen to embrace digital imaging techniques to produce more creative fine art work. Palacios will be available in the Ken Duncan Gallery across both weekends of his exhibition to chat with visitors and share the stories behind the creation of many of his award-winning images.
