We've known Hadae Mae for over 20 years now. We met her in a tight situation, she greeted us with her double barrel. We have gotten past that and are great friends. Even though she didn't want Paul to paint her we kept visiting. A few years ago, she up and said, well "I guess it wouldn't hurt if'n ya drew me a little". So here she is. Watch out for the original "Hadea Mae & Ol' Persuader" you'll get to see how we felt at the end of her good ol' standby "the Persuader".

There sat Aunt Emily (103) by the window in her favorite chair, like a queen on her throne... her royal
cape over her shoulders.. the delicate light of dawn dancing over her face. "...her all knowing glimmer
...the secrets she holds...her forever majesty!"
We felt as though we were in the presence of a queen; when she spoke her stories spilled out like music
in a song. She told us of days long past. Still, we were awed by the strength of her presence. After a while, we said good-bye unknowingly for the last time. Emily died short while later. Another legend lost." PM

Original study for Charcoal "Kentucky Coal" Standing in front of her Grandma's cabin, holding her puppy. “Her big beautiful eyes connect you to her world. Her soul seems to draw you inward to a place to bucolic innocence. Born in the coal fields, from a long line of miners, she’ll break the tradition by not going down under. We think she’ll break a lot of our hearts as well.”............... Paul’s intimate and powerful talent brings you so close to her, you could almost know what she is thinking and what she is doing or what is in her world. She lives in coal mining country deep in the woods of the Appalachian Mountains; the only girl in a long row of boys. She will break the tradition of five generations of coal miners. She’ll not be going down below with that deadly black dust. Her gentle, but knowing, look shows she is wide open to embrace the world and make a difference.” -Paul Murray- She has great possibilities - non of which include the short life her forefathers have chosen.

“I’s Build me a cabin if only I could, I’d make me a shine still deep in the wood, I’d get me a plough mule and work ‘em June thru ‘til May, reckin’ you won’t find me ‘til judgement day.” “I Feel close to Levi. He has a particular way about him. We took to each other the first time we met, and I feel very comfortable with him. He calls me “Buddy”. Levi is the traditional old-timer from Tennessee. There is a very soft side to this man, something very youthful, His beard falls to his chest and he runs his hand over the bottom of it every mow and again, making me think, that the beard is meant to hide his innate shyness. He’s suspicious of people and I can just picture him making moonshine in those mountains. He’s got real pride in his banjo playing, which he is well known for. He talks often of his blockading and his coal mining days. He was exactly what I wanted to paint.” -Paul Murray-
Caped Coat Oil, this delicate oil is done as the master Rembrandt would have done. Transparent glazes, layer after layer, so the painting creates its own light. Capturing a moment of sweetness, Zoe' plays with her hands, while sitting in her caped coat, like little red riding hood. A simple, masterful and yet powerful piece, Its size speeks volumes of the tenderness that was considered in this intricate creation.

This is one of the cherished pocessions of Joey & Dan Joey and Daniel made everything by hand. Paul was there when Daniel was repairing and making these wagon wheels. What a special honour it was to be apart of their lives. How wonderful it was that Paul Murray saw this and cherished it so much he drew it for us to see. KatiJane M.
This is an amazing picture, very powerful. You captured way more than a physical resemblence of Aunt Emily. Her very essence seems to be with you when you view the painting. If you never painted another painting this alone would qualify you as a most gifted painter. I envy the person who will be the caretaker of this painting for future generations.
Many years ago I came across a young artist in a barn in the Harrow, ontario area. That young man was Paul Murray,I fell in love with a clown and purchased it. |my sister bought 2 small oil paintings, one of a racoon and the other of a winter village. She begged you to do a clown for her, which you did later. These clowns are large wnd well framed and with acid free paper. We had this done and the artist who did it was very impressed as was Dorothy Oxborough (a beautiful artist of aboriginal children).I also have a first edition of Mirrored Souls. Please give me an idea of the approximate value. We are elderly \(87 &84) and I want the family to appreciate the value when they inherite them,
Thank you so very much and continued good luck with your lovely works, Gloria Boudreau 905 894 3482
Paul it’s so nice to see the advancement of your craft and that you stuck with it for all these years. I heard some years ago from my old art teacher that our old public school still had a piece of my art on display. It was a great feeling to know that it still around. Of couse I proudly gave it to the art teacher who showed me how to enjoy the act of creating. I thought you would be pleased to know I still have your clown pastel. It’s odd, but every time I look into it I always observe myself and never had a need to look any deeper.
Hope it makes your day.
Your Friend
Randy
Dear Randy,
Paul says you went to school with his older brother Doug. Thanks for the compliment. It is a blessing to be able to continue his art and pass on the history and give back to communities. I feel strongly that the people I preserve are rich in many ways, and that they have been shelter from lifes supperficial trials. Their hearts are innocent to our self imposed drudge of progress, the rat race. I hope others continue to enjoy my work for many years as you have. Paul Murray, re Kati-Jane Murray
Absolutely wonderful, I saw this in Cowboys and Indians and had to check out
your website. WOW! would I ever love to have this ability. Thank you for sharing
I have an original of yours I believe and I would love to know the story because it looks so much like my little girls
Please browse the website and tell me which pictures it looks like, then I may be able to know which you are talking about. Kati-Jane Murray or call 1-888-728-5687

Hi Paul,
How’s it going Paul, its been a very long time. Some of your recent works are very impressive, who knew you would be so successful. I hope all is well with your brother and sister.
I’m curious about a painting you did for may parents back in 1979. For insurance purposes do you have any ideas of its approximate value, if any.
It was scenic painting of some mountains and a river, I could provide a picture if required.
I hope all is well.
Mike.

I bought the original pencil used for the “pie makers” prints. I believe their were 125 prints in the original printing. Do you know if there are any of these prints still for sale. I still have the original but a friend would dearly love a print. I think they were first issued about 25 years ago – seems like yesterday!
Robin
Hi Robin: My husband & I have a print of the “Pie Makers” & it is for sale.
Actually, we have two Printer’s proofs # 8/10 and 10/10.
Both are remarqued.
We also have many other pieces of Paul’s work for sale.
Please contact at the above address.
Ruth
I have one of the prints framed and matted that I would sell. Write me back at jwild40059@gmail.com if still interested
I have a framed matted one if you are still interested
In the 90’s I was buying a few prints, when you were still in Ontario.Your work is still amazing and you found your place in this world, that was your calling. We are the same age, I bought my first at a show in Wilberforce??? I am still looking for the clown poster.I love it.Could you maybe e-mail me if one becomes available.Thank you, have a great summer. Maybe, if Justin Trudeau wins our election, his Dad, Mom and Justin, could become an instant seller. Pierre was such a gentleman. It turns out the one guy, that was charged for claiming/overcharging expenses,was another child of Mr.Trudeau, Mike Duffy.Don’t you just love Canadian politics. Have a great summer Paul, I will be watching your site for the next little while. Yours Sincerely, Susan Wilson.
We have a couple of “how Many Clowns” call me so I can reserve you one 865-436-8445
In regards to Robin Briggs request looking for Pie Makers for sale, I have the prints 26/275 available for sale.
I am from a company in Ontario and I had a print of yours come in for a charity event to sell. When I came across it I was just not comfortable putting a price on it and putting it in a garage sale. The Charity event was a large garage sale and the proceeds are going to Hopewell Children’s Homes. The print is # 174 of 275 of Baking Flour & 1884 – 1984 Pastel faces Zoe & Joey.
I guess my question is what should I do with this beautiful piece of art?
Please call me at our Tennessee gallery before November 10 at 865-436-8445. You were right the value could cave as high as $2500 if it has been kept outside of the sunlight and framed with acid free mats and backing. Hope this helps. Sorry for the delay, but this review function does not trigger a notification to me the best way is to email or call. Info@ paulmurray.com
what is the name of the ruggaber girl?…i live on elmstead rd as does my sister in law who is a ruggaber…she doesnt recognize her…i recently read your book mirrored souls and would like to pass it along to someone in the ruggaber family
ANDREA is the Ruggaber girl she should middle age. Paul met her in 70-80’s when she worked at Lyles produce in St Clair Beach near Brighton. Pauls book is sold out and worth $350 now, just thought I’d let you know. Say hey to ANDREA and tell her to give us a ring when you find her 865-436-8445. Kati & Paul
looking at a lithograph by paul murray hand signed any information on it would be great its called ragman i can be reached at jrutkowsky@hotmail.com also what its value would be
Ragman was a labour of love for Paul Murray. The drawing itself was created from an unique situation. Paul’s family church had a play with the minister “Chuck Congram” playing “The Ragman” from a christian story. THis story was published and was put with the picture if I remember right. The church gave Paul Murray a small black & white photograph of Chuck Congram at the age of 18 and asked him to make the given picture. We were glad to offer the prints that we paid for its publishing, hoping this would help the church raise money for their new church building. ALthough we worked closely with the church to help them sell this print, this edition was never sold out. This therefore makes the image value at the issue price of $100. I hope this helps you, any further question please call us 865-436-8445 KatiJane Murray
I saw a painting of an Appalacian woman holding a gun an wish that I had bought a print. Is it available as a postcard?

I have a Tennessee Bonnet Print #251/450. It looks like a water colour, but your website shows it is oil. I’m looking for the current value to insure it. Can you confirm that it’s oil and that the value listed on your website is current?
Joan, You do have a limited edition of the “oil painting of Tennessee Bonnet” by Paul. He uses old world masters techniques that are called “Glazing” this is finely applied transparent layers of oil. Rembrandt used these techniques. So although this may look like a watercolor it is an oil and the value shown on the insurance guide on the order/inquire then click on our insurance guide. The amount listed is the most current value. Let me know if I can help you further. I am sorry about the delay in responding, please email me in the future with any questions or support needs. info @ paulmurray.com or call 800-567-3220
Thank you for having such a wonderful body of work, shining a light on the history of the area. Love your pieces that I picked up in 2017. They make a beautiful gallery wall in my new home and bring back happy memories of my road-trip through Tennessee. You will be missed, but I wish you a bright future in your future endeavors!
Thanks for your appreciation of Paul’s art. Please keep in touch with our emails and new projects that will bring the mountains and its people closer to you with intimate reality experiences. Paul and Legendary musicians will share their talents as well. You can also call or email us to make sure you are taken care of. Thanks for your patronage.
