Steven Townsend
Image size 36 x 52cm
Steven is a completely self-taught artist. He was born in Colne, East Lancashire in 1955 and still lives in the area with his wife and four children. Looking at the quality of Steven’s work today, it is hard to believe that he showed no talent for art as a schoolboy. He only began to paint when he was 27, during a period of redundancy and illness. He felt the urge to copy a picture of a Kingfisher and, to his surprise; he found he could do it with ease.
Edition number 139/675
