Have put the following code, yet the foreground and background are
not being set as defined.
(setq show-paren-style 'parenthesis)
(set-face-background 'show-paren-match "#FFA600")
(set-face-foreground 'show-paren-match "#0000A3")

If you do this before loading paren.el, then the face show-paren-match
is not yet defined, I think.

I have done (require 'paren) before defining my functions. It is working
for (setq show-paren-style 'parenthesis), but not when using
(setq show-paren-style 'expression).

There is a face `show-paren-match-expression': most probably you want to
tweak that one.
How did I find out? Well, I set show-paren-style to 'expression, set
point to an opening parenthesis and then did a `describe-face'.

This.
I'd also suggest that users use `M-x customize-face'.
That's what it's for. It can help avoid some doubts,
mistakes, questions, etc.

And I found that out by reading the code of paren.el.
