British artist, Ripley, works with high resolution digital composite photography to create large-scale pieces. His primary focus is working with Thoroughbred Racehorses, creating a feel of the equine master painters but using modern methods to create works of incredible detail and clarity. Working at magnifications of over one-thousand percent, pictures can take between 200-500 hours to complete. Commissioned pieces include the portrait of ‘Estimate’ for Her Majesty The Queen. Personal works include ‘Leopard Spotted Horse with Dalmatians in a Landscape’ and non-equine imagery such as the ‘Girl With Flag’ series. Ripley has recently completed a five year project creating 12 large-scale works for the Household Cavalry Mounted Regiment, to be exhibited in 2023.
