Paul Ruiz completed his visual arts education at Melbourne University in 1996. For over ten years Paul consulted on technology-driven projects across several industries whilst deepening his continued fascination with the visual analysis, drawing and painting of the human figure. After launching his first solo exhibition in 2005, Ruiz’ work found eager collectors in Australia and abroad whilst represented by Melbourne-based galleries. The artist’s work is now shown alongside prominent emerging and mid-career artists at Lindberg Galleries and he is working towards his next solo show of paintings to be held in Melbourne in 2010.

    Love how the colors ( esp. the blues and reds ) meld with the whites and create a shimmering effect. The fuzzy treatment of the forehead matches with the rest of the body (in all the figures painted); while the face in each painting is at once focused and shimmering, seemingly weighed down, deep in some tormented thought.

  2. I completely agree with you. Harmonious!
