Biography

Paul Patrick Fenner studied at Newcastle University and the Jan Matejko Academy, Krakow, before graduating from the Royal Drawing School in 2012. He was a recipient of the Richard Ford Award in 2012, and spent three months in India in 2013 on an RDS teaching residency. Paul’s figurative images result from the always messy and complex interaction of memory, his immediate surroundings, ideas about human beings, other images and the thickness of the painting process itself.
