About Paul Horton
As a child Paul struggled with illness which drove him towards art as a form of escapism. His artistic skills would be developed through school and life drawing classes at Bournville School of Art; taking on the traditional techniques for realistic depiction.
Bringing Characters to Life
A turning point in Paul Hortons artwork came about after visiting a puppet theatre in the 80's that was closing down. He gained access to the store room as was drawn to the characters and the folklore found in this lost world. These characters have been brought to life in his artwork where they are released of their strings, gain their own personalities and develop into something new.
"The wonderful assortment of characters that appear in my paintings take inspiration from a number of sources including illustration, story books and theatre. There is often a narrative element to be found within my work, people interpret my characters in so many ways."
