Paul Kingsley Squire London based artist
Paul Kingsley Squire has created a diverse portfolio of contemporary artwork  through oil painting, intricate drawings and digital pen & tablet.

He is fascinated by themes of metamorphosis and transformation, working in series around themes to create a range of different works: from digital on plexiglass to pencil on paper to oil on canvas.

Across each medium, his artistic style retains a consistent ethereal quality, and boasts polish and thoughtfulness that allows ideas of psychology, nature and consciousness to be pondered by each viewer.   
In A Time Lapse | Oil on canvas | 92 x 122 cm | 2016

Supernature...

These abstract landscape paintings use thick layers of oil paint to create textures and depth. Paul is interested in how the medium of oil paint can be used to create effects and suggest forms within the painting itself.

They generate an otherworldly yet naturalistic image, leaving the subject open to interpretation. The intention is to create paintings using experimental techniques, producing work that is abstracted and expressionistic.

The rhythmic weaving of the brushstrokes creates energy and flow, enhancing the suggestion of a natural process producing swirling mists and organic forms.

METAMORPHICA & The Danse Macabre...

...drawing inspiration from mythology, symbolism, pop culture and contemporary fashion. These animal headed hybrids and dead beat fashionistas mix humans with paganistic totemism and skeletal decadence, resulting in a highly stylised ultra modern icon.

Using a digital pen & tablet, a framework is digitally drawn in exquisite detail and then meticulously coloured, to create the finished artwork. This series of works draws inspiration from mythology, symbolism, pop culture and contemporary fashion.

The completed pieces are each available as limited edition acrylic (perspex) prints, or archival Giclée prints which can be traditionally framed.

Stay Cool - Digital artwork from the Metamorphica series by Paul Kingsley Squire
Human Nature 5 | Pencil on 200gsm paper | 42 x 59.4 cm

Drawings...

An ongoing portfolio of pencil drawings exploring the interlinking relationship between natural landscapes and human forms and animals. 

In many cultures the power of nature has been symbolically represented and in this series Paul has used the female form and animal archetypes to convey this link with complex designs of woods and trees. 

He has continued this technique in a series of 'mystical' orb drawings.
