Paul Lewin was born in Manchester in 1967 and moved to the South West after completing his Fine Art degree at Bristol in 1989. He has subsequently gone on to gain a high level of recognition for his depictions of the Cornish coastline with a commission for six works for the Cunard liner Queen Mary II and a stay as resident artist on Ynys Enlli (Bardsey Island). His paintings can be found in collections throughout the UK, Germany, Mexico, USA, Australia and the Far East. He lives in West Penwith with his young family.
