Paul trained at Huddersfield College of
Art in the mid 1980s and then worked
in the art department for a firm of
printers. He always knew he would be
involved with art, right from being a
small child. He never stopped painting
and in 1998 he turned professional,
concentrating on watercolour as his
main medium and later included acrylic
as a second medium.
During his painting career he has been
made a Companion of the
International Guild of Artists, an
Associate of the British Watercolour
Society, a Professional Associate and
advisory panellist of the SAA, president
of the Halifax Art Society, as well as an
advisory panellist for Artists and
Illustrators magazine.
