Born in Coventry, and educated at the the City of
Coventry Boarding School, Paul left school at 16 in order to train as an aprentice draughtsman. Pauls first love
however is, and has always been, painting. In fact, on leaving school he lied about his age and entered the Herbert
Art Gallerys open exhibition for aged eighteen and over, in Coventry. Even at this tender age he had two of his
three works accepted, one of which was singled out for particular praise by the then Lord Mayor of Birmingham.
Paul tried to further his education by taking night school classes, to study
art as an A-level.This was to be short lived as, by the third lesson, the art teacher had given up, informing Paul
that he should be teaching the class, not studying in it.
Having finished his apprenticeship, Paul went to work designing graphics for
a video unit, which then progressed to designing graphics for large conferences which had the added advantage of
travel, taking him all over the world, from Europe to Japan.
