Artist Paul Christopher Flynn
Paul Christopher Flynns paintings have been attracting critical notice and knowledgeable buyers since he began exhibiting on railings in Dublin in the late summer of 2003. In the short time since his first painting was sold, he has sold out two consecutive appearances at Art Ireland at the Royal Dublin Society, a two-person show in Belfasts Gormley Gallery, as well as two group shows for Irish Fine Arts.
Pauls current work is an attempt to represent the landscape in a way that creates a visual and emotional space in which the viewer can roam. He believes that his function as an artist is to encourage the viewer to participate in the creative process, in effect allowing viewers to explore and complete the painting for themselves as an aid to meditation. This contemplative nature of Pauls paintings is what leads viewers to stand in front of them at exhibitions, seemingly lost in thought. For Paul, no higher compliment is possible.
