Alison Haley Paul is a contemporary painter of lavishly textured landscapes full of nuanced color. Her work conjures up connotations and geographical memories: that summer you spent at the beach, the tree where you went to think, the path up the hill behind the school, the view out the car window on the way home. The places she paints may not be physically specific, but they are immediately recognizable and designed to trigger nostalgic feelings and memories. Paul also seeks to give a sense of grounding with both balanced yet surprising color and a sweeping horizon. Paul’s background in ceramics and interior design led her to a love of texture. While studying the weave in fabric and how it influences color, Paul began to paint texture. Paul majored in Art and Design at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York and also earned a BA at the Design Institute in San Diego. Her work has been exhibited in numerous museums and solo shows and is included in public and private collections worldwide, including the Triton Museum in Santa Clara, CA; Oceanside Museum of Art; San Diego Museum of Art; Coronado Museum of History and Art; the Museum of the Living Artist in Balboa Park; Newport Art Museum in Rhode Island and SCOPE art Miami in Miami, Florida.
