Bill Mundy (Portrait painter and fine artist)
Bill Mundy was born in Berkshire and painted his first portrait before his fifth birthday. After a five year apprenticeship as a lithographic artist he spent his military service in the Far East as a cartographer during the Malayan Emergency. He lived in Asia for 20 years where his career progressed from Creative Director to the position of Area Director for Asia with a large International US Advertising Agency.
Whilst in Asia he became the “Court painter” to the Johor Royal Family in Malaysia. He returned to England in 1978 to become a full-time artist and portrait painter. He had his first miniature accepted for exhibition at the Royal Academy’s Summer Exhibition in 1977. In both 1980 and 1982 his paintings were voted ‘Exhibit of the Year’ at the Royal Academy and he has regularly exhibited there ever since. He has also exhibited with the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and the Royal Society of British Artists in London.
Elected a full member of the Royal Society of Miniature Painters in 1979, later that year he became a member of the Miniature Art Society of Florida, and the Hilliard Society of Miniaturists. He was also elected to the prestigious Miniature Artists of America in 1992.
In 1999 he was commissioned to paint an equestrian miniature for Her Majesty The Queen, and is the only living miniaturist to be represented in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London. He has published three books on Miniature Portrait Painting and his autobiography entitled “A Brush With Life”.
