Paul David Bond, 1964 | Magic realism painter

Paul Bond's award-winning oil paintings live in the spaces between dreaming and reality.
Born in Guadalajara, Mexico, he draws from the Latin American genre of Magic Realism where symbolic and fantastic elements blend with realistic atmospheres, unveiling a world where anything is possible.
He often refers to then as "fairy tales for adults".
By merging and altering familiar objects - mixed with equal parts whimsy, wonder and mysticism - Bond’s works delight the imagination and stir the soul.
