Born in Ireland. Paul has studied colour and images in detail on a professional level for many years. His Art is influenced by Irish landscape, culture, Writers, Storytellers, the people and all aspects of Irish life which in itself has a story to tell. His work forms part of collections in Europe, America, Australia and China.

He started in 1982 as a lithographer working for John Hinde, learning how to etch plates and following it on to the final print. His skill in the area of print was well recognised and he gained invaluable knowledge of the chemistry and mechanics of printing with oil based inks. He has used his knowledge of oils to bring paintings to life using the transparent nature of paint. His exposure to the worlds landscapes has given him a great appreciation of the island of Ireland it's landscape and culture.

His work stands out as unique, being one of Ireland's most creative and original artists.
