He often uses African fabrics in his textile work.
Acid Mine Drainage, detail.
He created a series of 12 panels introducing himself and his battle with prostate cancer. He was very brave to share his experience with others and did it in a very unique way. Some visitors who had themselves experienced cancer had tears in their eyes as they read his poetry that accompanied each panel.

I was disappointed I was only able to dedicate 10 minutes to his exhibit! Shameful but it was either that or nothing. I am so glad I drove up to Romach-le-Franc even for that very short visit.

Paul is a talented artist who produces amazing work! Thank you for sharing photos of his exhibition at the European Patchwork Meeting in Val d'Argent, France. The Kenya Quilt Guild salutes you, Paul!!
