Paul Grass
bio
Art Genre: Oil Painting
Paul has painted full-time for 12 years in Denver and 2 years in Utah, creating portraits and scripture-based paintings, commissioned by dozens of clients. His style has developed into what Patrick Devonas calls Academic Impressionistic, stating, "The ability to draw realistically is paramount in order to come up with a style of your own.” Academic Impressionism draws on deep emotion and evokes strong and sacred feelings. Realism, infused with the softer edges of impressionism, while focused on light and movement, is what speaks to Paul. Rembrandt, Carl Bloch, Heinrick Hoffman, and Illya Reypin are some of the largest sources of Paul’s inspiration as he paints the Life of Christ.
At Mountain View High School, he passed the AP Art exam while under the tutelage of Steve Laney. He then graduated with a BFA in Illustration from Utah State University (2006). At Utah Valley University, he mentored under Perry Stewart and Patrick Devonas. In 2009, he moved to Denver, Colorado to mentor with painters Quang Ho and Ron Hicks. Paul Romeri-Grass is excited to share his testimony of the Living Christ with you. He hopes his paintings will draw you closer to the Son of God—the One who knows exactly how to succor you in your time of need.
