About Me
My workshops are 20 mins from Haywards Heath, Lewes, Burgess Hill, Forest Row or Uckfield.Working from my garden studio in Newick, I'm inspired by the beauty of the natural world around me here in Sussex because I'm so close to the South Downs National Park, Ashdown Forest and the Sussex coast's seaside towns and chalk cliff-lined beaches, and I love watching the changing seasons.
Originally from Brighton, I went to Eastbourne College of Art in the late 1980’s and then graduated from Brighton University in Illustration (BA Hons) in 1990. I briefly freelanced for magazine publishers, and then worked in the print and stationery industry for about 15 years before I returned to painting in 2013 when my youngest daughter began pre-school...and I've been painting ever since.
Sharing my expertise to students is very rewarding and something I first realised being part of Chalk Gallery in Lewes, as one of the first artist-led galleries which is known for nurturing artistic talent in Sussex area. Helping others find enjoyment in their own creativity and being part of their journey and all its breakthroughs is very satisfying.
My favourite medium is Indian Inks; it's an ancient water-based medium, lightfast and permanent, quite similar to watercolours, and it gives my work its powerful, sparkling colours and perfect for an experimental, intuitive style like mine.
Education
BA (Hons) Illustration/Graphic Design at Brighton University (formerly Polytechnic) 1990.Previously attended Eastbourne College of Art and Design B/TEC for a 2-year foundation course, which was an invaluable introduction to all the art disciplines before I decided that the Brighton Illustration BA course was the right choice for me.
Experience / Qualifications
I run collage and painting workshops to village art groups, school age children and art clubs around Sussex and I am DBS checked.Ask a question

MENTORING IN ARTS : Discover how to say something through your artistic work.I am a visual artist born in Barcelona, settled in Belgium since 2017. As an artist I have accumulated experience for the last 25 years. I am graduated with an Academic Bachelor in Fine Arts in the University of Barcelona and graduated as a Master in Visual Arts at Sint Lucas School of Arts in Antwerpen.
I am specialised in painting, drawing, experimental films, installations, language, sound and curating. In other words, I am a multidisciplinary artist.
I understand the artistic practice as a way to understand ourselves and the situations which surrounds us. In my classes I don't teach how to do Art, but as how to say something through your artistic work. With me you can work independently, with a coach who will challenge you with some assignments and giving feedback to your personal concerns.
In addition, you will learn how to work with several mediums, preparing your own material: paintings, canvases, and so on.
You will not only receive individual coaching but as encourage you to look other artists or take into account other references connected with your concerns.
Finding, discussing and retaking solutions together are the core of my classes.

Drawing with Paul. Learn the fundamentals of drawing so that you create the art you dream of.Michelangelo say that you don't draw with your hand, but with your head, and that is true. Drawing is the most versatile skill you can learn, and the basis for infinite routs to express yourself. From drawings we have mapped and planned human civilisation as we know it. It is the original written language, and it is so much a part of who we are that even the youngest of us know what it is to create meaningful marks on a piece of paper. Drawing has inspired my life and I hope that I can share the things I've learned with you to help you on your path. There is nothing more frustrating then getting stuck as an artist, or looking at the great work of people that came before you and wondering how will I ever get there? It is a journey that lasts a lifetime, but it doesn't need to happen alone.
There are ways to grow your skills, that those amazing artists did, and have been passed down. Ways to break down what you are doing on the page to truly create the illusion of depth, so that it feels real. I can give you the building blocks to understand how to create realism. I will also help you build on our own natural creativity, and hopefully keep you from some of the growing pains I had to go through in the pursuit of my craft.
