Motorsports Collection - Inspiration
A short film highlighting Paul's inspirations and motivations behind creating the collection
I am constantly looking for new opportunities and scenes to capture within my work, my head is bursting with ideas for paintings and there’s just not enough time in the day to paint them all. I don’t know exactly where my painting will take me next, but I do know that maybe the journey is more important than the final destination.
