Trevor Boult - one of the foremost British watercolour artists having received major commissions from and for The Queen.

Amongst many commissions Trevor has received are two major commissions from The Queen and for The Queen.

The first was a large composite picture based on Her Sandringham Estate, combining buildings,(including Sandringham House), wildlife, portraits of her stud horses, working dogs and one of Her prize Hereford bulls. The work took a year to produce and contact with The Queen throughout the duration of the project was made through Her private secretary at the time, Sir Philip Moore. Trevor had unlimited access to all areas of the estate which included many private areas that are not normally open to the public.

On completion of the project Trevor and his wife Wendy were invited to an audience with the Queen at Buckingham Palace in her private drawing room where the picture was 'presented'. It is understood the work hangs in a private apartment at Sandringham House.

Second Commission for The Queen

Solihull Council commissioned Trevor to produce a landscape picture based on rural areas that lie within the Borough to be presented to the Queen on Her Jubilee Celebratory visit to Solihull. Trevor produced several landscapes for the Council to choose from. The picture selected featured a farmer driving an old Fordson Major tractor through a rural landscape typical of the low lying meadow which the River Blythe meanders through, near Barston and Hampton in Arden.

The picture was presented to The Queen by Trevor and Wendy in Solihull Library.
