History
As an independent designer and technologist for the past twenty years working with manufacturers and private clients worldwide I jumped at the opportunity to join forces with Ronald McNeish and The Collection.
Ronald F. McNeish opened The Collection nearly 50 years ago in Shadyside. His clients know him for impeccable quality and careful attention. Today The Collection is located at the corner of Walnut St. and Filbert St. in Shadyside. Recently, exciting changes have taken place to The Collection; new artists, new techniques and technologies, ensuring that even the most discriminating client can find a unique piece in our gallery showroom to treasure. Every piece is as unique as you are...

At first, Paul's style was still elusive. His pieces where developed around ideas, statements and from input from clients purchasing commissioned works.
