About Paula Phelan
Paula Phelan is the artist, writer, photographer, and founder of PiP Art Studio.
Her work draws on decades of writing, travel, observation, and image-making. The Studio brings together photography, painting, drawing, books, mixed media, and visual experiments into a broad practice concerned with memory, place, nature, women’s history, wit, and the persistence of imagination.
The work often begins in the act of noticing: something seen, remembered, questioned, or held long enough to become an image. Across the Studio, individual works gather into books, sequences, collections, and visual archives.
PiP Art Studio is the creative home for the full body of work. PiP.Art offers selected books, prints, cards, and art pieces from the Studio’s collections.
