Paul Hans Ohmert was born on October 23, 1890 in Zielenzig (Neumark), Germany, the son of Hermann and Bertha Ohmert. The family moved to Drossen in 1895, and Paul Hans studied art as a young student. In his early years, Ohmert created an extensive body of drawings and etchings. An etching of "Muschelfischer van Sylt" from 1908 (age 18) suggests wealthy patrons, as the North Sea resort was certainly beyond his experience. He moved to Berlin, where he studied with Hans Looschen, Karl Hagemeister, and his great influence on the well-known Max Liebermann, members of the Berlin Secession. Ohmert showed at the Dortmund print exhibition in 1910 at the age of 20. In 1912 he married Berta Hoffman and had a son, Gerhard, in 1914. He remarried in 1920 to Désirée Moliere in Antwerp.
In 1921 he exhibited with Amsler & Ruthardt in Berlin (catalogue) and also in 1921 he was commissioned to become a member of the German-Dutch Society for an exhibition of Expressionists in The Hague, Netherlands. Ohmert had a studio in Güterfelde, located in the southwest of Berlin. In 1939 he was a visiting professor in the Netherlands and in 1942 returned to Oberstdorf, Germany, where they built their own house. Ohmert's estranged son Gerhard moved to Russia in 1942.
After a stroke in 1955 that partially paralyzed him, Paul Hans Ohmert died on August 8, 1960 in Oberstdorf in the Allgäu.
