The Contemporary Christian, Original Art Paintings of Paul Myhill…
Expressionistic paintings inspired through a relationship with, and reliance on, God - the Master Artist.
Paul Myhill's unique style, bold color and strokes, and his worship of the Creator of the Universe, are one in the same. Paul says
"Painting is definitely a worship experience for me. I could leave the finished works by the curb and they still would have fulfilled a great purpose. Every minute that I am before the canvas is time spent with Him, asking for His direction, thanking Him for the opportunity to serve through it, and praising Him in general for His love and faithfulness."
I believe this is what God has called the artist to do- To give Him praise and worship in all we do. Paul does this through his beautiful, comtemporary art.
Paul Myhill was born in Bedford, England in the late 60's.

Shunning the label, "Self-Taught," for the more apt, "God-Directed," Paul acknowledges that, absent any formal instruction, his brushstrokes are ultimately roused and guided by the Master Artist, the Bestower of such gifts…a resplendent song of intense harmony and sweet, spiritual mystery of inspiration and co-creation. For Paul, each painting is an enthralling worship encounter as he communes with his Maker |
| Paul has a deep interest in early Christian symbolism and imagery, particularly the primal visual elements of the faith…timeless, eternal. With a similar fascination and absorption, he has spent over a decade as an avid collector of primitive art, particularly pieces from the tribal people groups of Africa, Asia and Latin America. Paul has traveled extensively throughout the emerging world and under-developed nations, encountering a blistering diversity of cultures, styles and elemental art forms utilizing basic constructs and bold colors. These experiences, fused with influences from the American Southwest, his home for over 20 years, have converged to produce a body of work focusing primarily on primitive Christian iconography within rich, complex layers of intrepid color schemes. |
