Steel Sculptor

Born in 1967, Paul originally studied graphics near his home in Essex and then went on to take a degree in painting in Birmingham. From the start his drawings and paintings took on his individual style and were characterised by his satirical sense of humour. Even as a painter he found himself making low relief sculptural parts which were stuck onto or came out of the paintings. With his spirit of invention these works developed into paintings with three dimensional moving parts and it wasn't long before he found his way into the sculpture department.

Here his creations finally burst out of their two dimensional constraints. It was after college though, with a studio in the old Birds Custard Factory in Birmingham that Paul really discovered metal.
In the huge disused factory he found steel sheets, bought a little welder and started to play. Now, a significant body of public art, exhibitions and private commissions later, Paul's studio is in the
coastal countryside of Suffolk. He lives and works there with his family, always ready for the next challenge.
