About Me

I'm Paul Cato and I live in Queenstown, New Zealand, with my wife, two of my three daughters, two fluffy dogs and a very overweight cat. I am a professional artist, specializing in painting large landscape vistas - mostly from southern New Zealand, but also from all around the globe. I also love to paint enchanting figure paintings, often using my beautiful wife and daughters as models.
