Hey there, I'm Paul Nicholls, an artist from Manchester, England, but now rooted in the serene coastal town of West Wales. My creative journey thrives in the realm of children's book publishing, where I blend digital finesse with the charm of traditional pencil and paper. With a penchant for infusing whimsical fun into my character designs, I specialize in crafting endearing and offbeat animal characters that bring stories to life.
I pride myself on being a professional yet down-to-earth collaborator, known for my seamless workflow and knack for injecting humor into every illustration. Armed with a BA (Hons) degree in Illustration, my creative process is a blend of traditional and digital techniques. From hand-drawn sketches in trusty sketchbooks to meticulously refining concepts on Adobe Fresco and Photoshop, each piece undergoes a journey of meticulous crafting and playful experimentation.
Art has been my lifelong passion, fueling my creative spirit since my early days. When I'm not immersed in the world of art and storytelling, you can find me unwinding on the Welsh beaches, cheering on my son at his football games, or cherishing quality moments with my family. With two wonderful children, one navigating secondary school and the other embarking on a university adventure, my artistry is not just a profession but a reflection of the joy and warmth that family and nature bring into my life.
