| Elizabeth Bruce: Started painting in 1993 & soon decided to give up a successful career in IT to paint full time. Elizabeth then moved to Cowal in Argyll in 1996 to establish her own studio & has lived & worked in Blairmore on the shores of Loch Long ever since. Although largely self taught, she has studied Art part time at Langside College & The Glasgow School of Art ,as well as with various tutors, including Christine MacArthur RSW,RGI & Hugh Scott. Elizabeth is a voracious reader of books on the history of Art, Scottish Painters in particular from the colourists via Anne Redpath & Joan Eardley to Victoria Crowe. Although in the past she has worked in all media and in a variety of subjects. She is currently working with Acrylics in her Still Life, Interiors & Figurative work. Despite being surrounded by the splendours of the West Highland Scenery she paints only an occasional landscape. |
David Morrison: Was born & brought up in Falkirk & moved to Ardentinny in Argyll in 1974, he went on to study at Duncan of Jordanson College of Art in Dundee, graduating with BA(hons) in fine Art in 1989. David has delighted the Art world with his painting ever since. He has been inspired by the Argyll landscape with its dramatically changing mood & ever changing Scottish weather, he captures the moment confidently, working with a limited palette of luminous tones of blue, and he records the landscapes most contrasting light & dark hues of sunlight & shade. Brought up surrounded by boats David often includes the subject in his work, brightly coloured hulls appear frequently on the horizon & sometimes take over the painting completely. The juxtaposition of colour in his painterly technique delights the viewer even in his popular pastel work . Drawing is the sound basis for all good paintings, David’s work demonstrates this to perfection. Juno is happy to exhibit the work of these two much admired & successful local Artists. |
