Paintings by Paul Roberts

This dude has issues

Very enjoyable, thank you

You are the one whose name is balls. This are pretty good in my opinion.

very talented

Very american. but good

Quite possibly, from a Psychiatric point of view, I presume you mean, but so did Van Gogh and so do I. Paul Roberts has his own style and I for one really like it.

Just what the world needed.
More pictures of naked people on the interwebs.

Wow, I really like these paintings. Very interesting.

It was shopped.

Am I alone in thinking the woman in #6 looks suspiciously like Geena Davis?

These are phenomenal for the stories they all tell and the amount of expression and character built into a single frame.

Nice paintings

It was shopped you can see the pixels around the edges, i have done lots of shopping, i know.

this is just portrait photography. I’d rather see the pictures you painted from. be more creative man. express yourself

wow it’s like the paintings are more realistic than reality itself.

yes they do seem more real than real. That is no doubt part of the artists intention. The style is sometime referred to as hyperrealism… each of these images has a dark undertone that causes you. me and anyone else that is prepaired to look at them to ask what are they really about. The mix of high style and guns of religious symbols and guns,a naked women and and two men , one with a gun are all conflicting in some way… To the people that think these are photoshopped, well they may be, but I doubt it. To know if these are photoshopped you would need the origional files. These files are reduce size for the web. any image you look at on the web will look like it has been messed with because of the low resolution. As for them being painted, I have seen many exhibitions that had paintings that were as good as or better than photographs when you consider the skill of the artist.. enjoy , they are stunning but a little disturbing. I bet they would be amazing in te gallery or my house…I want one !

0He does not have isssues his work is very 80s like reminis

Boring and obvious juxtaposition

I like them, is this really painted or a real pic brushed in photoshop? Either way they are pretty cool.

Intense, honest, and beautiful. Truly this artist has a passion. I greatly admire the work and shall strive to achieve such greatness of my own some day.

This guy, apart from being a pervy misogynist, has completely ripped off that other style over substance “artist”, Jack Vettriano. Both have never stopped their adolescent dreaming.

Interesting semiotics mixed with Kitch and elements of sexual abjection. It takes guts to paint in a ‘creative’ artistic environment where concept has become self important….for the people with negative comments…lets start moving past the post-modernity…its getting boring.

“Very american. but good”

- other than the fact that he is from Wales…

yeah, this dud as issues but that artwork is very good

these painting make me feel like they would smell like sweaty aftershave and polyester…

Gorgeous pictures. Any chance you used benjamin moore paintings for any of these?

Don’t care what anybody says; these are very nicely done, to say the least, and for what ever it is worth, you have my thumbs up! Good luck, my man, Ronjon

Has he ever met a girl? Normal Women don’t do this… I haven’t met any that would. I think this is all just his sexual fantasties.

I think these are very nice! ANd Tracifer, you are not alone in thinking that she looks like Geena Davis. I was thinking that earlier too. In fact, I remember her wearing that same lingerie in the movie ” Earth girls are easy”.

I really like how, I guess the word is, corrupted these are. They remind me of some sexy gangster film.

you’re the best keep forward

This Dude was Talent!!!

these are not oil paintings, are they?

absolutely amazing. your talents are limitless. so realistic .

Love the work, great stuff

Photographic, still, quiet, cool, hyper-realism, cartoonistic, surreal. Danny’s comments above seem to capture much of my feelings. However, if this is so boring and tired, as several have said, why are so many people reacting and leaving comments ???? The obvious disturbing subject matter?? I too have seen some movie-star/Hollywood similarities; especially the lady with the knife … I can’t place her, but she is well known ….

Wake up everyone, Not only can this man paint, but he is the lead singer for “SNIFF-N-THE TEARS”. His paintings are but one of his ways of expression. He was great in the late 70’s and 80’s with his music and art and my soon be again. Every one is an art critic,,,or not.

utterly terrible cliched kitsch worthy of the eqqually terrible Jack Vitriano

I’ve always enjoyed Paul Roberts paintings, AND his music I’ve seen the paintings in galleries (they are BIG!) he’s a craftsman (far better than Vettriano and he’s been painting a lot longer, so if anyone’s ripping off anyone,it’s Vettriano! Tracifer, I agree, the model in Angel Redeemer does look like Gena Davis and I think IS. She features in a video with Paul, promoting the CD ‘King of your Heart’ see it on youtube.

Hi I am trying to get hold of Paul. I am an old freind from the 60/70s and need to get hold of him as a matter of some urgency? I have some great early art of his – inspired stuff.

Very talented artist.

Great selection of Paul Roberts’ works. I’ve written about this talented artist myself before. Not quite a photo realist, but in a way that’s a good thing. Reminds me a lot of film noir in mood.

these women are faaaaaar too skinny, it distracts me from the otherwise good technique.

sexy stuff i love it i want to by the chick ironing her skirt where do i puchase !

After all, isn’t sophistication strange??
