Leicester born artist Paul Wright studied at Falmouth College of Art obtaining a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Illustration in 1995 

Paul has spent the last 15 years developing a painterly language through which he seeks to capture a vitality beyond the establishment of a mere ‘likeness’ to the subject.

Appreciating the importance of the subject being recognisable, they are glimpsed rather than exposed, their inner selves hinted at but ultimately inscrutable.

Paul often works on a large, potentially imposing scale, the work remains immediate through fluency of brush mark and a rich palette.
