About Paul
Paul was born in Yorkshire, England and studied Fine Art at Leeds, Jacob Kramer and Goldsmith’s, London. He exhibits internationally and nationally and supplies galleries in Mayfair,( London), Yorkshire and Manchester. He is member of ‘The International Guild of Realism’ and a Fellow of the Faculty of Decoration, (Sheffield,UK).
A leading trompe l’oeil painter, Paul works in a variety of styles and media, through figurative paintings, murals, illustrations and print-making. He works from his studio at home in West Yorkshire and also from his studio on the Yorkshire Coast.
‘I am easily lured into any artistic endeavour that takes my fancy. It is all about creativity. My present work explores life’s ironies and absurdities through painting, drawing, printmaking and performance.’
Paul’s painting, “Painted Lady’ has recently featured on the cover of ‘Who’s Who in Visual Art, 42 Masters of Realist Imagery’ and last year saw his work featured in ‘The Finest Rooms in America’. This year his painting can be seen in ‘Folly de Grandeur’ Nicky Haslam’s latest book.
