About Paul Crabtree

Paul Crabtree is a UK based urban artist specialising in decorative skulls. From elegant painted designs to stencil and street art, and through a wide range of media, he creates bold and thought provoking images. 

Since 2006 Paul has produced a large body of work that has evolved from traditional pen & ink drawings to the beautiful elaborate skulls you can see throughout this portfolio. Inspiration for the artist changes constantly, meaning that his work has taken many different directions. This makes for an exciting prospect and every exhibition unveils something new. In 2014 Paul set up Black Core Studios with a view to establishing a collaborative of hand picked artists to create a portfolio of striking images unique to the Black Core brand. This is a work in progress and you can keep up to date with developments on the project by following Paul on Twitter BLACK CORE TWITTER

Paul has collaborated with many artists in some exciting projects, most notably joining forces with world renowned California based surf artist Drew Brophy in 2014 to create a piece entitled Radioactive. The unique project was a massive success and the painted skull has since sold out in the US.
