Paul Battams
Paul Battams was born in England and now resides in Sydney's inner west. This allows him access to the harbour where he is able to pursue the " abstract principles of the waterline ", which is a strong influence on his work. He often visits Europe and has exhibited in France and the U.K. He has even purchased an old farmhouse in the Dordogne district in France.
Paul says “ What’s fundamental to my work is the ' act of painting '. It's the elevated experience during painting that deepens my sense of self. I seek to encourage visual openings, I try to extract the essential, to reveal the simple, to move towards the truth as I see it ".
Paul Battams is an ideas man, never in the same place twice, with his work constantly evolving. His work is equally popular for private and corporate collections and he is well represented in collections in Australia, France, the U.K. and America.
