One of the leading names in aviation art, Roy Grinnell was born in Santa Barbara, California. As a child he enjoyed drawing airplanes and at the age of eleven he painted a Swedish P-51 shooting down a Me-109 for his Swedish grandmother. When Roy graduated from Santa Barbara High School he decided to join the Navy and was stationed in Guam. After serving his time in the Navy he attended the Art Center School of Design in Los Angeles and graduated with honors. Preserving Aviation History on canvas is Roy Grinnell’s forte and it has brought him worldwide recognition as an Aviation Artist of the highest caliber.
