About Paul Kenny

Born in 1951 and educated in Salford, Northwest  England, Paul Kenny completed his Fine Art Degree at Newcastle upon Tyne in 1975.  In 2004 he returned to North Northumberland where he now lives and works not far from the sea with his wife Margaret. 

He has travelled to work in Japan, France and Ireland but the main focus in developing his unique vision were the remote beaches of Wester Ross in north-west Scotland and the Western fringes of the outlying Islands. 

Since moving back to Northumberland the windswept beaches between Holy Island and Spittal have woven their way into his work,

In 2000 he was made a Fellow of the Ballinglen Arts Foundation and now, whenever possible, he spends time at their facility in North West Mayo, Eire.  He has work in some of the worlds major public and private collections including Deutsche Bank, Goldman Sachs, the V and A, the National Photography Collection and the National Gallery of Scotland.
