Paul Buten Bio
Bavarian in BC
Paul also spent over ten years in Switzerland and Sweden, working at many different jobs in various locations.
Paul immigrated to Canada and settled in Vancouver in 1970. His preferred medium is oil and though skilled in portraiture, his work has come full circle to settle on the mountains, forest, clouds and water that so intrigued him as a child.
See his photo gallery with hand-painted works of art that are now for sale, showcasing Deep Cove, Whistler and Beautiful British Columbia.
Commissions are welcome.
Paul is an active member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and can be found on the website http://www.myartclub.com.
Just go to “Find Artist” and type in his name!
Paul is also a member of the German Canadian Business Association and is a very active supporter of the arts.
At the 2014 European Festival it was greatly appreciated that he generously offered to showcase his hand-crafted castle, based on the famous Neuschwanstein one in Germany, at the featured German tent, held in Burnaby at that time. The castle, as well as a small replica of a Bavarian House are for sale, as well.
