Killian was born in 1974 and studied at Carmarthenshire College of Technology & Art and graduated with a distinction in FineArt/ Illustration in 1995. His initial work was published as a range of greeting cards by top International Publishers Royle Publications and Gluvian Galleries. With his passion for boxing in his teens and early 20's he started producing a range of boxing paintings which were published as a range of Limited Edition Prints in 2005. Soon after this he went into self publishing, producing his own Limited Editions for various Sporting Events and Testimonials. As an amateur, he started late and had his first amateur contest at 18 in Newbridge in 1993, stopping his apponent in the 3rd round. A young man called Joe Calzaghe also boxed on the same bill!! Patrick's record was 45 senior bouts winning 35, stopping more than 15 inside the distance of 3 to 5 rounds (5x2min rounds in Championships 1997). He seriously considered turning pro with the Calzaghe camp after winning the then ABF (Amateur Boxing Federation) title in 1997, disillusioned with the politics surrounding the sport and the amateur scene at that time he persued his dream of becoming a professional Artist. He was commissioned in 2006 by James J. Houlihan the American Curator of the successful World Tour Exhibition - The Fighting Irishmen. The Exhibition has been travelling since its inception in New York in 2006, The South Seaport Museum, New York in 2007, Boston College 2008, Ulster American Folk Park Museum 2009, Dublin Croke Park Museum in 2010 and now Limerick, Ireland in April 2011 before heading to London for the 2012 Olympics. The exhibit now includes 4 of his paintings. Over the last few years he has painted on many sporting and charity events raising man thousands for various charities through his paintings.
