We are proud and excited to introduce a new artist to the Paragon stable, dynamic painter, Paul Wright. Paul will debut his first collection with us a Fresh: Art Fair 26 - 28th April this year. Paul’s work is dynamic, intuitive and intense. His vision of our world is often full of gemstone colour or completely black and white. It is both sensual and expressive. Quiet yet strong. Gentle but intense. This balance of expression is exceptional to see in an artist. He has defined his own path.

We are delighted to welcome Steven MacIver to the Paragon Gallery. Steven’s debut collection features ten paintings inspired by the Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire landscape. In recent years, Steven became an avid runner and spends hours at a time on the trails and bridleways of Oxfordshire and Gloucestershire. Routes are repeated, but never the same and as the seasons change, so does the light.

We are honoured and lucky enough to have been nominated for the Best Art Space Gloucestershire and Worcestershire award by Muddy Stilettos!
