Roy
Miller SEA, AAEA
As
a Member of the Society of Equestrian Artists and American Academy of Equine
Art, Roy is an artist of international repute.
Roy
began work as a commercial artist at the age of 14, studying in the evenings at
the Manchester College of Art.
In the early sixties he moved to London and worked as a freelance
illustrator.
He has had many exhibitions including the Royal Academy, but the turning
point of his career was in 1972 when he visited a racecourse.
Within three years his talents for equestrian painting were recognised
and acclaimed and he became a full-time equestrian artist.
Her
Majesty the Queen has a painting of Roy’s in her collection.
Other commissions from the Royal Hong Kong Jockey Club, the Coaching Club
of GB and United Racecourses quickly followed.
His
solo exhibitions include the Melbourne Cup Festival, Sporting Gallery of
Virginia and
National
Stud, Newmarket.
