Ari Paul

Ari Paul is a Gen X artist born in Los Angeles. She makes her home in scenic southern Oregon.

Presented on Saatchi is her current 2026 series entitled
'Big Moment Desserts: Indulge Your Healing.'

They are a series of eight abstract analog collage paintings created in an earthy yet otherworldly vintage 1970s style.

These eight metaphysical introspections invite the viewer to take their place at the cosmic table.

Each piece depicts a uniquely hard won epiphany.

All works are 24x30x1.5" and are composed of acrylic paint, archival acrylic medium, and found vintage collage ephemera on gallery wrapped canvas with painted edges.

Ari Paul's collage-paintings have an old school DIY cut and paste ethic as well as a playful spirit. She finds eclectic inspiration from Dada, Surrealism, Abstract Expressionism, Pop Art and Contemporary Art. Some favorites are Hilma af Klint, Hannah Hoch, Joan Mitchell and Basquiat.

Her works adorn collections in the USA and Europe.

Ari Paul studied visual arts at the Pasadena Art Center and San Francisco State University before moving to France to attend Ecole Albert Defois.

In a Loire Valley barn surrounded by vineyards, sunflower fields and haystacks she studied Restructured Realism and Plein Air landscape painting with both
Ted Seth Jacobs and Gundula Jacobs
