Norman Long has established a reputation among the foremost figurative artists in the UK. His oil portraits have twice been featured in the BP portrait award and Royal Society of Portrait Painters exhibitions and most recently he was awarded the coveted de Laszlo Award for portraiture for his portrait of Walter Long (right).
Hence this Lancashire artist has become not only first choice portrait painter for Manchester, Liverpool and the North West of England, but a respected portrait artist throughout the UK.
Norman’s sensitivity, however, extends to a whole range of subjects. He creates painterly and light- filled oil paintings for exhibition and to commission which include figurative paintings, landscapes and still life.
An enthusiastic and generous teacher, Norman has inspired countless artists through his painting workshops, demonstrations and teaching.
