PAUL BIRCHALL
Born in England in 1959
  Portfolio

Paul lives between Cape Town and London. He studied painting at Wimbledon School of Art (London) and Deli School of Art (India), receiving a BA Hons in Fine Art Painting.

The body of abstract work he is exhibiting has developed over a number of years. He has always had a love of bright vibrant colours and finds placing them together in a painting a challenging exercise.

“I try to keep the painting vibrant and fresh,” he says. Mentioning his time in India, he says:”Artists in India have a different sense of colour that I find inspiring and useful in my own work.”

He achieves this using a process called Hinterglasmalerei (painting in reverse). This technique developed in different areas of the world independantly and has been practised in Germany around a small town called Murnau, In China and India, and of course South Africa. Paul uses this technique on Perspex.
