Paul Moschell’s Matchbox Personas

Most galleries always seem to want larger works but smaller, even tiny works like these matchbox paintings hold a special place in my heart. Imagine creating these miniature paintings, the brushstrokes must be the size of a pin! 

Paul has a fun little animated website with a Tim Burtonesque feel, chock full of his wonderful larger paintings as well. (HERE)
