Paul Cooklin
Born 9th May 1971, UK
Early Beginnings
As a young boy I can remember my Dad vanishing to the loft, a place I wasn't allowed to visit. After many hours, he would come down from the loft with a gratified smile on his face, clutching a few black and white pictures.
One day I was invited up to the loft on the condition that I did not leave for a while. I remember there was a strange smell in the air and the room was lit by a red light.
After a while of paper dunking from tray to tray and the use of a strange apparatus which shone a light on to the paper, I could see, as if by magic, a picture appear!
It was many years later that my passion for creating imagery of my own would take hold. I originally began my career as a digital artist in 2000 after spending most of my twenties travelling, including 8 years in Hong Kong.
With the new technologies available to me today, my preferred tools consist of a Bronica medium format SLR film camera, a Canon EOS 5D digital SLR, and of course the ubiquitous Photoshop for creating fine art illustrations and stock imagery.
Allowing your mind to create its own picture is one of the reasons why abstract art is so appealing as it allows the viewer to explore their own creativity!
