About Me

my love for art started at a very young age and just continued to evolve over the years ... drawing cartoon characters at the age of 6 ended up into painting full blown murals by the time i hit my mid 20's. EVERYTHING around me found it's way into my paintings .. then later my poetry.Druring my years at Millikin University in Decatur, IL i spent almost everyday for 4 years eating, painting, playing ball & writing ..... my art grew Tremendously over those years. Today i do not do a lot of shows because of the busy schedule with FILMS (www.one-wayproductions) but i paint a lot for private collectors ..... and i do things within everyone's budgetLater this year please be on the look out for my my 2nd book of poetry TO DREAM IN COLUOR & TRUTH and an untiled spoken word album.... both available at www.paulbranton.com
