Artist Statement

 
Paul has been working as a Master Printmaker for the last 25 years. He has collaborated with some of Australia’s most prestigious artists to produce high quality limited edition colloblocks. Recently Paul has been working with Tim Storrier, Euan Macleod, David Boyd, Jasper Knight, David Van Nunen, Salvatore Gerardi and many more.
 
Paul’s own work is inspired by his beginnings in Fiji where the importance of symbols is paramount to life of the artwork and where colour is rich and vibrant.
