Paul Bond

Paul Bond, born in 1964 in Guadalajara, Mexico, is an award-winning oil painter renowned for his enchanting works that reside in the liminal space between dreaming and reality. Drawing inspiration from the Latin American genre of Magic Realism, Bond masterfully blends symbolic and fantastical elements with realistic settings, crafting narratives he affectionately describes as "fairy tales for adults." 

Bond's art invites viewers into a world where the familiar is transformed into the extraordinary, merging and altering everyday objects with whimsy, wonder, and mysticism. This unique approach not only delights the imagination but also stirs the soul, offering deeper philosophical insights. 

Paul Bond's paintings have been showcased in esteemed galleries and museums, including the Gateway Museum in New Mexico and the San Diego Art Institute. His works are held in private collections across the United States and internationally. Notable corporate collectors include Fox, Warner Bros., NBC Studios, Royal Caribbean International, Scripps Hospital, Marriott Hotels, and Stanford's Lucile Packard Children's Hospital. 

Currently, Paul Bond divides his time between Southern California and Costa Rica, continuing to create art that illuminates a dreamlike world where anything is possible. 

We are thrilled to announce that Paul Bond will be showcasing his captivating works at Lahaina Galleries, offering a unique opportunity to experience his magical realism firsthand.
