He describes the process of creating as his happy place. His work strives to stray away from realism in most cases, as a form of escape from the chaotic real world. Through his vivid hue vibrations, and expressive characters, he hopes to lighten a few spirits, and bring smiles to those who'll view these images. Paul also loves to nerd out with friends, catching up on the latest anime and trying new foods. They're always down to find a new sushi or ramen spot to hang!! Music is also another of Paul's passions. He can't play an instrument to save his life, but he loves to take times of solitude to sit and decipher the meaning beneath the melodies. Like life, it's quite beautiful when you take time to stop and listen.
