Paul works on his fine art painting from his Southern New Mexico studios in Las Cruces and Alto, focusing on landscapes and local subjects using various paint media. He continues to explore various media and topics, adding themes and ideas from the desert southwest to his repertoire of painting. He is a member of the Agave Artists Gallery in Mesilla, NM and has shown and continues to show his art in various galleries and venues in New Mexico, Texas and, sometimes, internationally. In his own words:
“Like my father I am a storyteller. I guess I inherited some of his desire to tell stories but instead of words I use paint. Often, I know the title of my painting even before I start. My “stories” are based on the world around me. They emerge from the raw beauty of the desert southwest or exotic views from Asia or Europe. I take delight in imagining the “stories” of people or animals within those environments. I love translating them into watercolor, acrylic or oil paintings. I hope others can imagine these “stories” as I do.”
As an artist I use a number of different paint mediums, such as oil, acrylics, and water colors to create fine art. Each has its distinct advantages and I find it challenging to use those in my creations. Each idea manifests in its own individual style. I find acrylic paintings and watercolor paintings often work best for quick work, oil painting is great for more subtle effects . As a good friend and artist once told me--"Why sleep when you can paint"--Amen!
My inspiration for fine art comes from the world around me. While I enjoy the raw beauty of the desert southwest or exotic views from Asia or Europe I take delight as well from seeing people or animals within those environments. I love translating what I see into watercolor, acrylic or oil paintings.
Please contact me with any questions or requests and I will respond as soon as I can.
