Dean
Paules was trained in electronics, not art, but he pursued an interest
in painting from his early years. While following a career in business,
he also created award-winning landscapes of his native Pennsylvania
and the eastern U.S.
It was not until the mid-1980s that Paules turned to portraiture full
time, after selling his successful plastics firm. Largely self-taught,
Paules emerges a standout in a room of contemporary painters. Whether
a Paules portrait emphasizes emotion or restraint, it is always a
minutely detailed painting, unerringly true to life.
His subjects include Nobel laureate Dr. George Hitchings; General
Richard Ellis, Commander of SAC and NATO; Ralph Larsen, CEO, Johnson
& Johnson; Peter R. Dolan, CEO & Chairman, Bristol-Meyers-Squibb;
William W. Boechenstein of Owens Corning Fiberglass Corporation; David
Johnson CEO, Campbell Soup; and Chuck Williams, Williams Sonoma, San
Francisco, California. In 1991, Paules won the grand prize at the
National Portrait Seminar in Atlanta. |
