==Early life==
Jack Townend was born on March 30, 1918 in Bingley, Yorkshire. He attended the local grammar school, obtaining a school certificate, and in 1936 enrolled in the Bradford College of Arts and Crafts, graduating in 1938.
At 20, Townend moved first to Hampstead, London, and then to Watford. He studied at the Slade School of Art – under the direction of Randolph Schwabe. With the outbreak of war, Schwabe oversaw the evacuation of the Slade to the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art, University of Oxford. He collaborated with his friend Albert Rutherston, the Ruskin Master of Drawing, to combine the two schools for the duration of the war...〔(Gill. ''Randolphe Schwabe''.Samson & Company, 2012 )〕 Townend moved to Oxford in 1940 for the final year of his diploma, living at 70 Walton Street and remaining in the city for the next 50 years. Among his Slade contemporaries were landscape painter Kyffin Williams, Picasso scholar John Richardson, interior designer and antiques dealer Geoffrey Bennison, and artist Milein Cosman.
Townend graduated with a Diploma in Fine Art in June 1941, and won two first prize awards of £3 for engraving and lithography,〔(Joe. ''Drawn Direct to the Plate''. Penguin Collector's Society, 2010 )〕 possibly while studying under illustrator Harold Jones.
