Stuart Roy

Stuart Roy is a celebrated British coastal artist whose atmospheric seascapes capture the unmistakable character of the Norfolk shoreline. Originally trained in fine art and later working professionally in photography, Roy developed a deep sensitivity to mood, light and composition — qualities that now define his distinctive painting style. After settling in Suffolk and then Norfolk, he returned fully to painting, inspired by the vast skies, shifting colours and powerful sense of place found along the East Coast.

Rather than create literal representations, Roy focuses on conveying the emotional essence of a landscape. His work features bold, simplified forms, layered textures and a carefully balanced palette that evokes the quiet drama of open horizons, tidal waters and expansive beaches. Each piece invites the viewer into a moment of calm, reflection and connection with nature.

Stuart Roy’s art resonates with those who appreciate contemporary coastal landscapes filled with atmosphere and depth. At First4frames Gallery, you can explore a curated selection of his prints, presented with the option to choose framing and mounting styles that best complement your space.
