Michael Harding Professional Oil Paint
Capturing Life, Light, and Landscape from the South Coast
From the rugged landscapes of Perthshire, Scotland, to the vibrant coastal energy of Southsea, Portsmouth, my journey as an artist has been anything but traditional. After a decades-long intermission in the corporate world, a friendly bet over a night out rekindled my lifelong passion for drawing and oil painting—and I haven’t put the brushes down since.
Today, I create evocative, original oil paintings designed to bring beauty and emotion into any space. Dedicated to artistic honesty, I work predominantly on fine linen using premium, handmade Michael Harding oils to ensure every piece possesses a brilliant depth and lasting quality.
Whether you are looking to explore my latest collection of landscapes and portraits, or wish to collaborate on a custom commission of a beloved place or pet, I invite you to step into my world.

Services I Offer
Original Oil Paintings
These unique works encompass a broad variety of subjects, from expressive figure studies and detailed portraits to sweeping landscapes and characterful depictions of animals. Each painting is a one-of-a-kind piece, meticulously crafted in oil on stretched linen, allowing the texture and depth of the medium to come through. Paintings are supplied unframed, providing you the flexibility to choose a frame that suits your personal taste and interior style.
Oil Painting Commissions
My bespoke commission service allows you to transform meaningful moments and cherished subjects into a personalised work of art. Whether it’s a portrait of a beloved family member, a faithful depiction of a pet, or a painted memory of a special holiday, each commission is created with close attention to your preferences. By using a high-quality reference photograph, the painting will interpret and enhance the image rather than merely replicate it, ensuring it reflects your desired mood, style, and colour palette for a truly unique result.
