About Paul Spilsbury (GB)

My art is rooted in the urban buildings of Manchester, where I live and work. A central aim of my work is recognition. But I want the viewer to not only recognize scenes in my paintings, but also feel the sensations attached to them: the damp chill of a late evening, the glare of sodium street lights, the quiet moments before the city wakes. I seek to honour the gritty realism of everyday life and I paint scenes in which people can see themselves and the places they call home.
