James Fairgrieve

A one-man show of James Fairgrieve's still life work. The artist has an innate ability to compose images of immense beauty through acute observations.

He retired in 1998. He is a member of the Royal Scottish Academy, Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolours and past President of the Society of Scottish Artists. Birds, animals and the natural world feature strongly in his pictures and have been widely shown in group and solo Exhibitions north and south of the Border. He has been awarded prestigious awards, some, several times, throughout his career including the David Murray Landscape Award (RA), Gillies Award (RSW) and the Gillies Travel Award (ARSA). His work is held by many collections; the most notable include, HRH Prince Philip, Ian Rankin, Edinburgh City Art Centre, Scottish Arts Council and the Fleming Collection.
