Lawrence Pavia - born in 1959 he was interested in anything creative since his youth days, but only took serious interest in the arts in his mid twenties when he was firmly settled on a professional career as an insurance broker.   He trained under artists Harry Alden, Anton Calleja and Giuseppe Schembri Bonaci.

Lawrence is an art historian and has researched Self-Portraits in the Maltese Art for his Bachelors of art degree and has just completed his research, as part of a Masters of Art dissertation on the interpretation of Malta's landscape by the British artists Julian Trevelyan and Mary Fedden. He has researched other British artists who painted Malta and has recently contributed a paper to a Heritage Malta publication on artist and cartoonist Henry m. Bateman.

In his art Lawrence is inspired by nature and also by man-made rejects and refuse. He admires the vibrancy in colours and tries to use the unnatural representation of colours in his
depictions of nature or whatever it is he is representing.   For the last three years Lawrence has explored landscaples using vivid colours on flat planes delineated with black lines.
