The Thrill of City Life
Whether it's the frenetic streets of New York or the timeless elegance of London’s St. Paul’s Cathedral, Paul Kenton’s dynamic paintings capture the mood and atmosphere of each location with exhilarating precision. Starting as a monumental original artwork, Kenton achieves an exceptional level of detail in each artwork, through his range of heavy impasto technique.
Travel serves as a lifelong source of inspiration for Kenton, fuelling his sense of wanderlust and curiosity about the world. Through his paintings, Kenton captures the sense of adventure, exploration, and wonder that comes with traveling to new places. Each painting evokes a sense of freedom, spontaneity, and endless possibility, reflecting Kenton’s love for discovery and exploration.
Like the Impressionist painters before him, Kenton evokes moods and emotions with his vibrant compositions, effortlessly capturing the hustle and bustle of urban landscapes. Bright acrylic paints and neon tones illuminate the canvas, while metallic accents shimmer, creating reflections that dance across the surface.
