Simon Taylor

Simon has always enjoyed drawing and painting portraits since he was a child, and it was a natural progression to pursue a career in portraiture. However, it was his enthusiasm for motor racing which would be the unlikely catalyst which set him on the road to become a portrait specialist. He became a freelance artist in 1993 producing portraits of Formula 1 drivers obtaining, private commissions from those involved in the sport, and fans alike.

Simon has become skilled in portraiture adept at capturing not only the likeness, but the character of the subject, and paints traditional formal portraits and informal studies too. In 2006, Simon completed the official portrait of the Bishop of Northampton.
