About Me

I've been on this journey for over 40 years 

.. and OMG, things have a changed a lot during that time!

I'm Paul Wakefield, and my journey into the world of visual arts started way back in a small village in the south-east of England - it's called London (you might have heard of it!).From grammar school art classes to weekends spent chasing the perfect shot with my father's borrowed SLR, I've been hooked on creating for, well as I said, a very long time.Engineering might have taken me on a detour through three countries, but my love for photography never faded.Now, here in California, and many cameras later, I'm combining my passion for capturing moments with my equally enduring love for pen and ink. Speaking of which... pen and ink can be pretty unforgiving...which, interestingly enough, rhymes with 'stink' in London's cockney rhyming slang. (Is this my artistic destiny?)Whether it's portraits, pets, or products (and more!), I'm here to help you create lasting visual memories.Let's create some art!"
