Description
Bankers New Horizons
This powerful original work exemplifies Lincoln Townley’s visceral approach to contemporary portraiture and abstraction. Executed in bold, impasto oil, the painting reveals a spectral figure emerging from a searing backdrop of luminous orange and red. The heavily textured surface, layered with strokes of cobalt blue, crimson, and ochre, creates a dynamic tension between form and dissolution.
Townley’s distinctive style captures both the fragility and intensity of the human psyche, presenting a figure that appears to shift between presence and disintegration. The raw energy of the composition, amplified by the fiery palette, conveys themes of transformation, resilience, and the volatility of the human spirit.
A striking example of Townley’s celebrated practice, this work embodies his exploration of identity through expressive abstraction, offering both immediacy and depth to the viewer.
