Lincoln Townley with Michael Harding

For over 30 years, Michael Harding has been re-creating the standard of oil paint to the same quality and consistency of that used by the Old Masters, supplying the likes of the Victoria & Albert Museum and The Royal College of Art. The Michael Harding Company is delighted to announce a new partnership with international artist Lincoln Townley as their new Brand Ambassador.

Townley is a leading contemporary artist whose distinctive style has earned him an international reputation and led to his work being exhibited in some of the world’s most prestigious galleries. Last year, his Disappearing Soho Collection was launched at the National Gallery in London and his W1 Collection was exhibited at the Royal Academy.  He continues to be BAFTA LA’s resident artist after painting the six honorees of The Britannia Awards in 2015 and he will be doing the same for BAFTA LA in 2016.

Townley enjoys nothing more than creating art and experimenting with colours at his workshop at his home in Cheshire.  He says “My paintings are about impact and strength. I wanted more colour, more depth and more texture. Michael Harding Oil Paints give me all this and I feel energised and further enthused by this new working relationship and revered position”.

In addition to this, Michael Harding has just unveiled his new state-of-the-art website, designed with user-friendly navigation, high resolution images, plus an overall fresh new look. Michael enthuses: “I am ecstatic about my partnership with Lincoln Townley and his living work that exudes realism. He is truly a real artist of today!”

Townley’s artworks can be seen at The Maddox Gallery in Mayfair, London and in Art Angel in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. He will be showing his ‘ICONS’ Collection at The Royal Academy in June this year.
