Paul Clarke is a British Canadian artist and illustrator whose drawings explore the strange and funny truths about being human.
A practising artist for many years, Paul has worked across painting, ceramics, drawing, and illustration, exhibiting in both the UK and Canada. His current illustration work draws on his background in counselling and his fascination with psychology and human behaviour.
Sharp, reflective, and often unexpectedly funny, his drawings use humour and visual metaphor to reveal the psychology behind everyday behaviour, making people pause, laugh, and sometimes recognize themselves.
Paul is currently developing this work into a broader collection of illustrations and illustrated books exploring self-awareness, relationships, emotional intelligence, personal change, and the ways we understand ourselves and each other.
His work is suited to editorial, publishing, advertising, exhibitions, and licensed products, including books, prints, and greeting cards.
Originally from the UK and now based in Vancouver, Canada.
