About the Artist
Paul is an artist in Austin, Texas who enjoys painting outdoors in plein air. He also sometimes paint from pictures of places he’s been and do miniature reproductions of artists that inspire him.
The scenes in his paintings transcend the time and space in which they occurred and bring them to wherever you are.
His paintings have been exhibited publicly in Austin, Texas, through events sponsored by Plein Air Austin, and in Houston, including juried shows of the Avenue CDC Art on the Avenue auction.
Emile Zola wrote a good painting is a patch of nature seen through a temperament. To him, a painting visually translates what the artist was thinking and feeling at that particular space in time. The labor needed to mix and dab colors onto a flat surface is minimal, the inspiration to do it is elusive, and getting the right effect is nearly impossible. When it all works, it makes him happy.
