JT believes in building solid fundamental skills that provide a strong foundation for developing art with depth, meaning, and intrinsic value. To that end, Harding has studied under living masters from Studio Incamminati, an Atelier, founded by the Maestro Nelson Shanks. He has also been taught by notable artists including Cedric Egeli, Robert Douglas Hunter, and Sam Vokey. It is his aspiration to teach and inspire future generations of artists to carry on this important tradition.
JT is a member of the Oil Painters of America, The Portrait Society of America, and is an Associate member of The Guild of Boston Artists. His original paintings and commissioned works hang in many private and corporate collections in the U.S. and in England. Harding collectors can anticipate owning a valuable, well-constructed painting that captures the spirit of the subject while forming a strong emotional bond with the piece over time.
Some of his larger or more complex works can be purchased through the artist directly or at Xanadu Gallery Online.
