Caroline Towning has built up an enviable
reputation as an equine artist,
receiving commissions from celebrities,
art collectors, and Saudi royalty.
Edward Enninful, Editor-in-Chief of British
Vogue exclaims; “Your artwork is amazing!
Ru & I love it!” Caroline’s paintings
depict realistic yet stylised horses, in to
which she passionately breathes character,
life, and emotion.
Caroline grew up in Yorkshire surrounded
by horses. From the tender age of
four, she could often be found drawing
her mother’s horses. Her professional
creative career moved into the
realms of animation and design before
becoming the creative director and
curator of a private members club in
London’s Soho. Caroline then returned
to her true calling in life; becoming a
painter.
Caroline’s connection with
horses has never faded and
gives her paintings a true sense
of authenticity. Now based in
London, Caroline specialises in
equine portraiture in a multitude
of disciplines; including horse
racing, polo, show jumping and
dressage. Her large-scale oil on
canvas works depicts each intricate
detail of the superb
specimens she paints – bone
structure and muscles, every
ripple and individual hair.
Caroline’s attention to detail
results in an astonishing realism,
balanced with an expressive character
within each canvas, with the animals
appearing present and alive. Talking
about her art Caroline explains; “Each
canvas captures a moment in time; a
movement, a reaction and an expressed
emotion, bringing the animals
to life.”
Caroline has traveled the world to
discover, study and observe the most
superior and magnificent creatures to
paint. As well as oil, Caroline is an accomplished
artist in pencil and watercolour
– studies in these mediums are
often an important part of her painterly
process.
