Paul
Wilson
Still Life Artist
Born 1945 - London, England
Paul Wilson started painting at a young age, encouraged by his
father Alexander Wilson, himself a well-known and highly respected
artist. Paul became enthused and before long wanted to emulate
his father’s ability. During his teenage years and up to
his father’s death in 1969, Paul received a formal education
in fine art and was soon to produce his own unique work.
His still life studies are drawn directly from his chosen subject
matter and frequently depict bowls brimming with succulent summer
fruits or baskets ablaze with summer flowers, painting in rich,
bright colours, depicting all their incandescent glory.
His traditional still life style of painting has enjoyed a loyal
and enthusiastic following due to his individual and unique approach
to the form. Paul has had a number of successful exhibitions,
and his paintings are to be found in selected galleries across
the UK.
The Colomb Art Gallery currently
has a number of original oil paintings by the artist Paul
Wilson
