HEY, I’M PAUL!
The power of the pen has shaped my entire journey, from my years as a firefighter and officer, where I learned lessons about leadership, safety, and teamwork, to my lifelong passion for illustration and storytelling. Through art, I have discovered how to capture emotion, spark conversation, and reflect on what it means to grow as both humans and creators.
This is the reason I created my course, Character Design Mastery: From Idea to Final Artwork. I want to share the same principles and techniques that helped me transform simple sketches into expressive, meaningful characters and guide you step by step on your own creative journey.
