"I have lived in Colorado since 1967, studied painting at the University of Colorado at Denver and Boulder, exhibited  in various galleries and institutions in Colorado, most recently the Mizel Arts and Culture Center. 

I construct my paintings as stage settings where complexities of the world are reduced to a few actors and relationships:  machines, animals, ghosts or spirits, ancient ruins.

I like to keep in mind where we are coming from, and that it is also where we are going."

Paul Gillis
