Paul Hardy

Biography

Based in tropical Leicester I consider myself to be an amateur artist but see absolutely nothing wrong with this. Born on the same day President Kennedy was shot so I can remember where I was at the time!! I still have a headache!! I detest pretentions and find sadly that there are many with such in the art world. Despite this I am happy to ignore this and to be part of it. I have been inspired to get into painting at the age of 52 by Terry Harrison. I prefer watercolours to work with although ocassionally use acrylics and watercolour pencils. Pastels and me just don't get along I'm afraid!! I have suffered recent ill health 2 x heart attacks and multiple physical and mental health conditions including spending a week in a suicide sanctuary in North London in 2015. I still suffer with chronic depression and find that painting is a release and a relaxing activity from the crap of general day to day life.
