To this end, Paul was first attracted in his teens to the Surrealism of Dali, Magritte and especially Yves Tanguy, for its effort to bring forward a hyper-reality from withing mere realism.
By his late twenties he had left pure surrealist subjects behind but maintained his now-characteristic forced perspective and highly contrastive detail to win local recognition for his cityscapes and "shell-scapes" such as the example here from the early 1980s:
