Paul Wood

Paul Wood was born in London and was educated in the East London area gaining qualifications in Fine Art ,Ceramics and design. In his early years he was deeply influenced by the work of Frank Frazetta and Boris Vallejo. Paul gained practical skills in drawing, both Technical Drawing and freehand and later this also helped him to gain qualifications in Computer Aided Design and 3D. He has turned his hand to designing and constructing props and backdrops to sign writing and sculpture and is accomplished at pencil work. Paul Wood's work speaks of his experiences and influences and has created a unique progressive style now working solely with Acrylic glass sheet. He describes this material as bright, lustrous and exciting but also unforgiving, challenging and extremely hard work but rewarding.

My work is a progressive experimental and technical culmination of my life experiences and influences which has now matured to produce stunning abstract expressive and more recent, geometric work which have been described as fun, stunning, colorful and mesmerizing. I am influenced by the work of Mondriaan, Kandinsky and Kline, Pollock, Clyfford Still and Schulze. As an artist inspiration comes to me from feelings, words, lyrics, architecture...
