Stacy-Ann Vadala Palado resides in Knoxville, TN. Her paintings have been exhibited and sold in Virginia, California, Florida, and Tennessee. She holds a B.A. in art from the College of William and Mary (concentration in painting; minor in psychology). Her preferred medium is oil paint, which she uses to express raw emotion and explore issues such as feminism, inequality, sexuality and the human spirit. She describes her paintings as psychological portraits because her aim is to represent not just the external features of a person, but their psychological state at a particular moment in time.
