Paul Smith
Profile: I was born and brought up in countryside in Ayrshire, Scotland; educated in Scotland and Yorkshire.
When first married, I lived in rural Northumberland with close links to hunting and horse racing, and sold wildlife paintings through restaurants and galleries.
Moved to Buckinghamshire and spent ten years as an artist in motor sport, mainly World Sports cars, Formula 1 and Historic Grand Prix Cars. Also worked as 'paper engineer', designing for corporates cut and glue model Formula 1 and Sports cars as a marketing 'giveaway'.
I am now living on farm in rural Bucks, and painting in the wildlife and equestrian arena. I work in watercolour and mixed media; on private and corporate commissions and current work is based on farming and countryside subjects. Now works closely with Thames Valley & Chiltern Air Ambulance, developing art-related projects to raise awareness of the charity. I have exhibited in London, Oxford and Edinburgh galleries.
