\nMichael Ashcroft has gained many awards over the years — his most recent accolades are his acceptance into the Manchester Academy of Fine Arts and gaining entry into the Royal Institute of Oil Painters, Royal Society of British Artists, and the Howard De Walden Exhibitions in London.
\n
\nHis work gained him a place at the Mall Galleries in London, where he beat over three-thousand artists to become a finalist competing on the BBC 2 Art programme Show Me The Monet. He became one of only thirty to show work at the Mall Galleries. 2015 saw Michael's first painting accepted for the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition in London.
\n
\nBorn in 1969, Michael John Ashcroft grew up in a small village called Croston in the heart of Lancashire. After leaving school in 1985 he began his career as an engineer, painting and sketching only in his spare time, it wasn't until 1998 he decided to paint more seriously.
\n
\nMichael studied and works in Lancashire and is represented by galleries in England and Scotland. His paintings have evolved over the years from early abstract acrylics to hyper realistic works in the medium of oil.
\n
\nThe underpinning foundations of Ashcroft's paintings are his fascination with light and dark in urban and rural landscapes. This is something that has remained consistent throughout his practice.
