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.
