The legendary Paul Shipper's FOTC artwork is now on display and for sale in Wellington! It seems only fitting that this FOTC art be located here in Wellington, the home of Bret and Jemaine themselves! Artrium Gallery is currently displaying the original and has a few limited edition signed prints as well.

Paul Shipper specializes in traditional and digitally illustrated works of art. His talents allow him to work with numerous industries; entertainment, advertising and publishing. Working from his Studio in Hamilton, New Zealand, his clients span the globe.

Growing up in the UK, with a pencil permanently attached to his hand, he realized his unique talents. Paul followed his passion for art and design through high school and college. He graduated with a B.A. in Illustration in 1997.

While keeping a full time job, Paul began illustrating professionally, gathering clients and working on projects in his spare time. While firmly establishing himself in the design industry, he was also becoming an accomplished professional photographer.

His proudest illustration moments have included his work with Lucasfilm on Star Wars, as well as working with well-known clients such as Penguin Books, Sports Illustrated, GQ Magazine, Topps Inc. and JWT.

Paul also enjoys being involved in the collectible print world. He also has original work and prints available at a number of Pop Culture Galleries in New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and NOW WELLINGTON!

When he isn’t working on illustration projects, you will find Paul sketching, taking photos, making music, playing drums or piano. He loves spending precious time with his family and friends and exploring the New Zealand countryside.

Artrium Gallery is proud to have Paul's work now on display. Artrium Gallery is located at #4 /310 Tinakori Road in Thorndon Wellington. Open 7 days, Tues-Sat 10am-5pm and Sun & Mon Noon-4pm.
