Roy handcrafts each figure by hand, with each miniature completely unique and with its own story to tell.
We love how Roy’s witty creations remind us that there is a whole new world beneath our feet if we remember to look, and there’s joy to be found in any mundane situation. The artist celebrates the little things in life, and says of his work: “I use everyday props and taxidermy to create a humorous scene designed to be fun and intriguing. All of the miniature figures are hand painted to give them personality and charm”. After working in a variety of jobs - from mechanic to sales representative - Roy decided to focus on his hobby and became a full time artist. Since participating in his first exhibition Art of Curiosity at the Curious Duke Gallery in 2013, his career has gone from strength to strength. Roy has since worked on commissions for brands such as Apple, Ted Baker, Sea World, Zizzi and the Royal Mint. In 2014, Roy participated in a project with Big Issue where the artist hid 30 of his miniature figures around Covent Garden. We’ve been working with Roy’s People since 2016.

AR: What was the inspiration behind your new release / your current body of work? A couple of years ago I was just messing around in the studio with stencils and I created my first ‘scrubbed out’ installation with a Banksy image, I sold that and another but never did anything with the idea. Just recently I did a collaboration with an artist called DS using this same idea and it inspired me to explore other artists work that could be scrubbed out by my little guys.
