He describes his art as ‘formal abstract expressionism’. He tends to work in series of paintings and over the course of a series develops a language within the paintings that slowly increases the degree of expression within the works.

Here is another of his paintings:

Broken Raison D'etre? by Paul Godden

This painting is the result of a process of deconstruction and reconstruction using a formal but abstract approach.

Here’s another one of his paintings:

Emergency Temporal Shift by Paul Godden

This painting is from a series of paintings referred to as the Chimene series, a series of mandalas meditating on the themes of love and loss.

And here’s an early painting that I like:

After11205

This painting is from a series of paintings which explored themes such as balance, geometry, patterns, symbolism and natural forms.

Paul Godden has been painting all his life.

He has painted some truly wonderful paintings, of which I’ve only been able to show a few favourites. Here’s a link to his blog so that you can see more of his amazing work:
