Bold, Brave and a Bit Quirky is part memoir, part manifesto, and part mischievous nudge to anyone who’s ever had an idea they’ve felt too scared, or too busy, to bring to life.

Paul Fairweather – artist, speaker, and unapologetic experimenter – shares stories from his life and work, with ideas and insights alongside whimsical watercolours, to inspire the courage to create and the confidence to connect.

From chance encounters to left-field projects, from childhood memories to professional lessons (often learned the hard way), Paul shows how creativity isn’t about waiting for inspiration – it’s about noticing, starting, and daring to share.

This is not a ‘how-to’ book. It’s a ‘why-not?’ book.

Playful, practical, and occasionally profound, Bold, Brave and a Bit Quirky will remind you that creativity at any age can bring a little zest into your life.
