About
Paul Dias is a Jamaican-born and raised, with a passion for colour and all things captivating.
He offers about his work and exhibition, "Fruits of My Passion:"
Canada has offered me a unique opportunity to express that passion through my art. The four distinctly different but undeniably beautiful Canadian seasons have mesmerized me since my arrival. Consequently, I am always attempting to illustrate my impressions of the beautiful north.
It’s simply breathtaking, and I have spent the past 12 years attempting to document its beauty on canvas and many other surfaces.
