Paul Robinson grew up in the Cumbrian village of Lazonby, in the heart of the Eden Valley. Moving to London, he became a successful illustrator, working for many publications including The Sunday Times, Radio Times and Time Out magazine, whilst also exhibiting at the Thumb Gallery in London's Soho.
Eventually moving away from the world of commissioned work, Paul began to develop his own projects, pursuing his fascination for the City (of London) and it's workers. Working in oil, Paul developed his own distinct heavily textured 'impasto' approach to his work.
Having moved to Norfolk in 1999, he continues to explore the contrast between his current and past surroundings; his Norfolk paintings reflecting the atmospheric countryside with its enormous skies and stunning North Norfolk coastline, his City works capturing the dynamic architecture, the City crowds, and those just passing through.
Paul Robinson's work is included in private, corporate and public collections, worldwide.
