VICKY PAUL
Vicky Paul is a contemporary abstract artist and intuitive. She believes we carry inside us everything we seek outside us, and her work explores transformation, her passion for the mind body spirit connection, the energy in nature, and the golden thread that connects us.
Vicky’s practise is deeply meditative, guided by the process rather than taking control of it. Using texture, layers and spontaneous mark making, she works intuitively allowing the painting to emerge organically. She aims to capture the energy of oneness, elemental matter, the unseen world, and a feeling of deep connection with the natural world. Often featuring many layers, her work reflects the complexity of the human experience, the impermanence of life, and the impact we have, and leave, on each other and the world around us.
“I strive to capture the idea that there is an invisible force guiding and inspiring us; of all things being connected to infinite potential; the vastness of the universe; and the sacredness of nature and the elements. I want my work to act as a sort of visual alchemy informed by the viewer’s own perceptions and personal experiences”.
Vicky also creates Soul Energy Portraits; contemporary, abstract paintings that capture your energy rather than your likeness. She is a live event artist, runs intuitive paintings workshops, hosts How to Be SuccesSoul podcast and had her first book, How to be SuccesSoul, published in 2021. Vicky's work is part of private collections in UK, USA, Canada, Dubai and Japan, and has been exhibited in the UK and Dubai.
Prior to becoming a full time artist, she ran a successful Arts PR business, and was an award-winning radio presenter, reporting backstage from the MTV VMA’s and interviewing musicians including Madonna, Kylie, and George Michael.
Vicky is a member of Visual Arts Scotland and Society of Scottish Artists.
