Artist Statement:
My work is an exploration of
sexuality and identity through
narrative painting. I draw
inspiration from my own
experiences as a young gay man
from a conservative
environment to break down the
social constructs that exist
around sexual orientation and
gender roles. Through
colorful, illustrative, and
sometimes humorous paintings,
I expose the grey areas that
become overshadowed by black
and white moral codes. By
employing the visual
communication techniques of
graphic design and
illustration, my work is bold
yet inviting with apparent,
underlying themes. It invites
viewers of all origins to make
personal connections with the
imagery that I’ve employed to
tell my story and encourages
them to question conventional
ideas that disregard the value
of their individuality.

I visited you site and was very impressed with your art work. I believe you will be very famous someday. I wish I could afford to buy all of them, but, finances are low right now. There is one I especially want for my collection. I think you know which one I am referring to. If it would sell for $1,000. of course you should take the money but you will have to replace it for momma. love you.....

Hi Paul I just got back from Columbus Thanks so much for putting us up in the Hotel. I really like your work. It all looks great in the small windows. Because I've seen the piece in the CCAD Gallery I know all your pieces must be fabulous but your website will not allow me to view them magnified. So I can't read your comics but the illustrations look neat. thanks again - Chance Fraser

Paul, I saw your Not Just A Closet on Absolutearts.com's Newest Art Pics. I was immediately intrigued by the piece and wish I could see it in person. I'm an artist in Pennsylvania (originally from New York) and I have a studio in Susquehanna County. You are amazing. Very impressive work and I admire your ability to speak from the heart through your work. Would like to keep in touch. Marc Schimsky
