The Trust’s primary objective is to prom ote all aspects of sporting art and the support of practitioners is seen as an important part of this aim. To this end we are pleased to announce that this year’s recipient of the British Sporting Art Trust’s Bursary will enable SEA Friend Member Jane Leitch, to attend the week long Residential Workshop at Porlock at the beginning of June. You will be hearing about her week from Jane herself as she will be posting on social media and will also be writing an article for The Trust’s autumn newsletter. The residential week is unique opportunity to progress your practice as an equestrian artist, without distractions and with experienced tutors on hand to guide artists as they paint both horses and equestrians from life.

The SEA aims to promote the practice of equestrian painting and sculpture and the public appreciation of this art. It runs workshops and lectures around the country, led by Full Members and invited experts. There is now an emphasis on encouraging young artists with a range of new initiatives.
Membership of the Society is open to anyone. Friend Members who are artists may apply to be considered for promotion to Associate Members (ASEA), who in turn may become Full Members (SEA) by exhibiting their work with the Society over a number of years. There are around 450 members, many of whom are based overseas.
The Society was set up in 1979 by ten founder members under the Chairmanship of Norman Hoad, a notable equestrian and aviation artist.
