Self Portrait (2011)
Michael Taylor is a contemporary artist who paints figurative and still life works pouring with precise care and detail.
Working on a singular canvas at a time, Taylor spends roughly three months on his complex compositions, transforming everyday objects into lyrical and often poetic paintings.
Born in Sussex in 1952, Taylor attended the Worthing College of Art (1969 - 1970) before graduating from Goldsmiths School of art in 1973. Post-university, Michael Taylor devoted his time to working on a single canvas at a time. Throughout his career Taylor has received a number of Portrait awards and has exhibited across London and Dorset.
