Paul S. Brown was born in 1967 and raised in North Carolina. Paul’s immeasurable talent for drawing was evident from a young age. At the age of ten he received drawing lessons in the studio of the leading Classical Realist D. Jeffrey Mims and whilst at university had an extensive apprenticeship on several large mural projects.

In 1988 Paul travelled to Florence in Italy and continued his artistic training at the Studio Cecil-Graves in Florence for the next two years under the tutelage of Charles Cecil and Daniel Graves. After a period of travelling around Europe, visiting the continent’s most notable art collections and studying their art, Paul returned to Florence to help Daniel Graves open the Florence Academy of Art, an art teaching institution renowned for its commitment to the academic tradition. Paul remained in Florence for a subsequent two years, teaching at the Florence Academy of Art. Paul is one of the Academy’s greatest legacies to the world of Classical Realism.

In 1992, Paul returned back to his native North Carolina and set up a studio where he continued to paint as well as teach a select number of students. North Carolina has and always will be an integral part of Paul’s identity. He is a Southerner through and through, passionate about a hickory smoked hog roast, close friends, dogs and walks. Tracking deer or riding out, the land is his and his passion for hunting and fishing have been the nucleus for many of his most recent compositions. The sand and clay beneath his feet are vital to him; these are the red and yellow ochres of his paintings in their raw state.

Paul and his wife Serena now live in Dorset, England, with their son Nat and their dogs. But wherever Paul is in the world, he is firmly connected to his roots and they continue to inspire him.

A true Classical Realist, Paul upholds rigorous standards and holds firm to principles of artistic integrity, emulating the techniques and materials of the Old Masters. In a process he calls ‘Slow Art’ – referencing the Slow Food movement – he works from life in the naturalist tradition, paints on linen canvas and prepares his own paints by hand, carefully selecting pigments and oils to his precise requirements. Paul explains, “It’s a good foundation, to have the knowledge that you’re using the best pigment, bought at the mines and hand-ground yourself. When I pull out a tube of, say, yellow ochre, I know exactly where it come from and the journey I went through to go and get it. That gives a history to a painting, even at its early stages.”

Paul’s focus is universal beauty, and in pursuit of this he enjoys painting all subjects, concentrating on the nude and still life but also producing portraits and landscapes. He is an exquisite draftsman, and his perfectly composed works are rich with atmosphere and detail. Paul has an immeasurable talent for finding the beauty in all objects, be that a ball of twine and terracotta pots found in his garden shed or dusty vintage bottles of wine, ready to be poured as a delectable treat for a connoisseur.

Paul’s work is a rare combination of classical composition and exquisite colour and tone, made possible by his insistence on working exclusively from life and on using his own hand ground paints. These precise skills are particularly apparent in his figurative work. Paul considers figurative work as the pinnacle of artistic investigation. His nudes are painted with his characteristic restraint and elegance.

Paul’s keen passion for nature is felt throughout his work and the influence of his upbringing, a Huckleberry Finn childhood spent roaming the outdoors and studying the world around him, is palpable. A countryman at heart, Paul’s paintings reflect his love of nature and his appreciation of the crafts of husbandry. In his landscapes, Paul captures the lyrical rhythms of the countryside: the rust on a tin roofed barn in harmony with the fading winter trees, the tide ribboning away from a Cornish beach.

Paul’s still lifes always provide a visual banquet for the connoisseur of fine food and wine. Much of his work is deeply inspired by the flavours of produce that make their way onto his kitchen table and is often a celebration of the journey of farm and field to larder, cellar and kitchen. His still lifes breathe on the canvas; the shoots growing from onions, the daylight fading on a newly opened bottle of Bordeaux as a ripe brie oozes off a cheeseboard. Freshly harvested vegetables and a glorious abundance of foie gras and fowl provide an atmosphere of feasting to some works, whilst others become moments of pause and reflection – quiet glasses of the finest wine sipped in the afternoon sun with ripe slices of cheese.

Paul’s timeless visions of vintage wine and liquor have found favour with connoisseurs all over the world. These paintings are reflective of Paul’s love of a craft that, like his artistic style, requires a strict discipline in its foundation. As he observes, “There’s a rigorous practice that has to be adhered to in the making of the wine and that is mirrored in the reverential process of decanting, airing and serving it. I love that. When I’m setting the paintings up I’m imagining the pride that a person feels when opening their bottle. That’s how I know it’s a good picture, when I’m understanding it and feeling the same kind of pride in telling that story.”

Paul’s early training in Italy still resonates from his paintings today but there is a resolution of style through his careful scholarship and consideration of the French academic tradition, which uphold Paul’s worldwide reputation as a leading contemporary realist painter.

Paul first exhibited with Gladwell & Patterson, formerly W. H Patterson, in 1995 and has over the past twenty years been a pivotal artist within the gallery. Paul has exhibited widely, in London, Italy, Germany, Ireland, the USA, India and China. His paintings hang in public and private collections throughout the world.

They work, but not really worth it
Style: Bundle, Size: 2 Piece Set
Off the bat, they work pretty well. It’s not a miracle and they do work but I’d look for something else before buying these again. The micro needle ones did help deeper acne but they break way too easily to justify buying. The packaging sucks and is confusing. The micro needle dots are two parts that work awfully together. I broke 2 of the 9 just trying to get them off the package. The miracle dots are slightly better but if you get it stuck to your finger trying to get it off, that dot’s a wash. The adhesive is good in some places and not so good at the edges. A few stayed on well and those that did were nicely transparent. These are not invisible but I’d run out with one on and I have darker skin. I took them off and noticed that fluid had been drawn out and overall, things were flatter and more calm. However, the amount of these things I threw away due to the awful packaging and just not adhering, I’d have to be at a last ditch effort to buy these again.

They really do work, although it's a little hard to peel them off the backing.
Style: Bundle, Size: 2 Piece Set
I bought this combo pack because I had one of those deep cysts on my chin that I knew wasn't coming out anytime soon. I already knew the hydrocolloid patches for whiteheads would work, because hydrocolloid bandages work just fine for drawing things out of zits that have come to a head. I was more reluctant about the deep patches, with the microneedles, because it just seemed like nonsense that couldn't possibly work. They DO work! I put one on that deep cyst and when I woke up, it was 75% smaller than it had been when I went to bed. I couldn't believe it. I was so impressed that I actually said so out loud, to myself, alone, in my bathroom. Normally, that thing would've stuck around for weeks, getting angrier and redder but never coming to a head. I used one again the next night, and in the morning, it was pretty much gone, and it never came back. I highly recommend these. One issue I have with them is that peeling them off the backing it a bit of a delicate process. You have to be careful not to fold the edge over onto itself, which is easy to do because they're so small and thin. You also have to make sure to place them in the exact right place the first time. But despite these problems, I still gave them 5 stars because they work so well, so there's that.

Worked like a charm
Style: Bundle, Size: 2 Piece Set
I’ve tried other acne patches before and they’ve always pulled excess oil out of my pores, which ended up drying, scarring, and leaving behind a dry patch when compared to the rest of my face. These effects were especially bad for my cystic acne, which always ended up more inflamed and painful after treatment. The Rael hydrocolloid patches gently pulled out all of the sebum from several pimples that I’d avoided picking at; with other brands, the patches only pulled anything out from pimples that had already been picked at/burst. The micro needle patch also relieved my cystic acne overnight. The pimple is no longer inflamed or painful. When I took the patch off, I could see the liquid and oils that it had pulled out BUT didn’t experience the scarring I have with other patches. Other reviews mention that the patches are fragile, but I don’t necessarily think that’s any different from the other brands I’ve tried. I had no problem trying to get one out of the package on the first try. Overall, I think these are a really good fit for folks with oily skin who experience scarring with other patches. These definitely pull more sebum and not as much oil, so you should see your pimples decrease in size without adding to the inflammation. The patches adhere well and stayed on all night without peeling off (even though I’d accidentally bunched up some edges on the hydrocolloid patches when applying). I’m definitely going to keep a stock of both types readily available!

Praise Rael.
Style: Bundle, Size: 2 Piece Set
I suffer from cystic acne (on my chin and jawline, so probably connected to hormones) as well as dematillomania, or skin picking disorder. It's so hard for me to not pop the big honkers, especially when these painful zits have been around for days/weeks. All I want is clear skin, but cystic acne combined with skin picking leaves me with scars that take months to fade even when I'm pimple-free . I've been using Rael's Miracle Patch (pink package) for awhile. This is a great product, and works best on more surface-level zits. Last night, I tried the Acne Healing Patch (green package) on a persistent cystic zit I've already tried to extract, plus another cyst brewing on the other side of my chin. I've used so many different products to treat cystic acne, but nothing has worked like Rael's Acne Healing Patch. I kept the patches on overnight, and in the morning I found both had reduced significantly in size. The zits are well on their way to healing, and I finally feel like I will be able to treat cystic blemishes effectively and go concealer-free in the coming months. I never write reviews, but I felt I should share this experience with Rael patches. Acne can be so mentally debilitating, and I've been helped by a lot of fellow acne sufferers who share their experiences in product reviews. I hope my review is helpful for someone else. Thank you Rael, for a truly game-changing cystic acne treatment!

Picky dog approved!
Color: S6-muti-color, Color: S6-muti-color
I have wasted so much money on dog balls that they won't even pick up! They finally were obsessed with the Kong rubber green/blue or red/blue ones, but they're $3+. each, and they break from the dogs squishing it. I honestly had zero expectations on these, and they BOTH picked them up on the first throw! That's huge!! Seem to work fine in the ChuckIt. As for the squeaker, at first I was like "Oh nooooo." when they both loudly started! Much to my (and my neighbors') happiness, the squeakers stopped working after a couple minutes. 🤣
