His website is awfully modest. He lives in the UK, was born in 1949, studied ceramics at Dudley College of Art, was a commercial designer for the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and loves animals. Believe me, the "About Paul" page doesn't say too much more.
It's refreshing, this lack of overstatement and cant. Particularly when backed up by such lively, graceful work, left often with a rough finish. Like this long tailed mouse. This large running greyhound. Oh, and note the delectably rendered muzzles on the Twin Cats. Or the exaggerated ears and feet of this (more polished, as befits the technique) raku hare.
Mm.
