Paul Corfield

Paul’s artworks are a fantastic choice for fans of both traditional and contemporary landscape art. Akin to classical landscape painters like J.M.W. Turner, John Constable, Titian, Camille Pissarro and Claude Monet, he has created a vision of nature that perfectly encapsulates the thoughts and feelings of the time. His positive outlook reflects a generation who is looking to the future, and who wants to bring happiness and nostalgia into their lives. 

Artistic license gives his vistas a fairy tale, dreamlike quality that has touched the hearts of collectors at all stages of life; from newlyweds decorating their first home, to families with children. In his early days, Paul researched the work of the Hudson River School movement, which was inspired by European Romanticism and its celebration of the emotions and aesthetics of art, music and literature. Other inspirations have included abstract art and 3D software, along with the American artist Grant Wood and the Disney illustrator Eyvind Earle. 

Each of his touching scenes features magical details, including tiny flowers, winding paths and the waves of the sea. The airbrushed appearance is created with a fine paintbrush and reflects the concept of idealism. He adds: “In my paintings, existence has been stripped back down to the basics: there are no telephone wires, no street lights, no roads for cars. It’s not a real world, but a world people wish existed. Everything looks like it is meant to be there; each element is in its right place.”

Released in October 2021, his first book, Becoming Paul Corfield, chronicles his growth from an up-and-coming artist in Dorset to a prolific painter with artworks in galleries nationwide. Celebrating 15 years with our publisher, the accompanying collection of exclusive limited edition prints and original artworks reimagines some of his most popular sold-out pieces from throughout his career.

Paul says: “People tell me they love my art or can picture themselves in it, which is so touching. Often, they buy it for a celebration or to remember someone they’ve loved and lost; this is very special to me.”
