Auction of a mysterious book sculpture helps people affected by cancer.
The mysterious Scottish book sculptor has donated one of her intricate and unique sculptures to this year’s Edinburgh Macmillan Art Exhibition. During 2011, the anonymous artist stealthily - and sensationally - placed ten book sculptures at cultural locations in Edinburgh.
She has been sending photographs of the progress, and some of these photographs are now shown here.
We are, of course, unable to show the finished sculpture as it will only be revealed when this exceptional piece is auctioned by Charles Graham-Campbell, a Bonhams director, at the show’s preview evening on 13th August. It will then remain on display for the following four days.

Art in Healthcare
Art in healthcare is the leading arts provider
for health organisations in Scotland. it creates
stimulating environments that positively affects
mental wellbeing and contributes to an effective
healing process. it offers artwork to healthcare
facilities from its collection, manages site-specific
art commissions and provides art workshops
and talks for patients, care home residents and
sheltered housing communities
www.artinhealthcare.org.uk
Artlink is an arts and disability organisation
established in 1984. Artlink believes participation
in the arts has an important role to play in
realising personal and social change. its aim is to
increase opportunities to take part in the arts for
those who experience disadvantage or disability
by offering practical support so people can get
involved and enjoy the arts in the East of Scotland.
www.artlinkedinburgh.co.uk
Designing for Dignity: Art for Quiet
Rooms at South Glasgow Hospitals
The purpose is to introduce art into specially
designed rooms which will be used to create a
sense of harmony. The art will be a mixture of
traditional and contemporary based on nature
and includes prints, photographs, watercolours
and photograms.
Community engagement workshops will be
very much a part of the scheme to be applied
to furniture, fabric and wallpaper designs.

Dr. Donnie Ross
Dr. Donnie Ross was a founder-member of Grampian Hospitals Art Trust in 1985 (along with
Norman Mathieson MBE, Andrew Dewar, Ian McKenzie Smith CBE PPRSA PPRSW and
Arthur Watson PRSA and several other eminent local artists)
and chairman of its board of management and of its Trustees for ten years until 2014. During this time the ethos of GHAT was to integrate professional advice
on acquisition and commissioning with an in-depth understanding of the NHS healthcare environment.
A panel of arts advisors, all of whom were practicing
professional artists, was central to the organisation. During three decades, the GHAT Collection
became a pre-eminent feature of the visual environment in hospitals across the north-east of Scotland.
In recent years, the concept of The Healing Environment was developed and became part of Grampian Health Board’s
frame of reference in planning and refurbishing healthcare
accommodation. The ArtRoom programme, inspired by Barbara
Gulliver’s work in Glasgow and set up at Roxburghe House in Aberdeen by Anne Moore, employs professional artists to involve patients in creativity during their last few weeks
or months of life. ArtRoom is an extraordinarily effective and valuable contribution to healthcare, and brings new meaning to people’s lives.

Alexander McCall Smith“The Edinburgh Macmillan Art Exhibition is one of the most popular events in Edinburgh’s calendar – and rightly so. I am delighted to be involved in this event, which brings together a wide range of talented artists with an equally wide range of the public. Art and enthusiasm for art meet in one glorious display of generosity, and at the end of the day great comfort and support is brought to just those people who need it – the people whom this magnificent charity looks after so well.“

Ackroyd, CBE,RA, Norman No statement available
www.normanackroyd.com
Addinall, RuthSometimes, when I am struggling to get the creative juices flowing again, I go into the garden and make myself a simple bouquet. Although I say ‘simple’, I rarely find the process simple. Flowers are not easy!
www.ruthaddinall.co.uk
Armstrong, AnnI regularly visit the Arisaig and Morar area where the rugged landscapes contrast with the clear blue seascapes, the contrast of colours, varying light and weather affect the colours, soft greys to vibrant warm colours that are inspiring and are often the subject of my watercolour sketches or oil paintings.
www.ann-armstrong-art.co.uk
Ashforth, JillSkipness is a beautiful estate owned by some special friends just a short boat ride from the island of Arran. My drawing shows a ruined church looking onto the beach. Skipness is somewhere which has inspired me to paint over many years and holds many fond memories.
www.jillashforthartist.co.uk
Atkinson, ShelaghHer style of working is about process, a build up of layers upon layers. Urban and natural environments feed the process, the use of colour reflects an abundance of seeing. Recurring motifs are selected from her database of imagery.
www.shelaghatkinson,co,uk
Barber, Anthony J
I am inspired by the beauty of Scotland’s West Coast and Islands. The colours and ever changing light.
Beattie, Claire
Working with simple, austere and balanced composition I want the work to slowly reveal a restrained yet rich palette of colour and tone, echoing the landscape itself, and that its character of painterly surfaces achieved with layers of mark making are apparent and interesting to the eye.
www.clairebeattie.com
Blair, Lel
The neglected landscape and mundane aspects of city life provide me with rich source material. Recent work has developed following visits to China and India. Working with mixed media, I am often drawn to vibrant colours which represent how Ii feel about the subject rather than what I actually see.
www.lelblair.com
Blois, ClareIn the tradition of many Scottish painters I am inspired by the physical qualities of oil paint and the endless possibilities it provides in term of colour, movement and texture. The extraordinary landscapes and seascapes of the Highlands and the natural world in general, provide me with endless material.
www.clareblois.co.uk
Bohan, TrinaBig skyscapes, natural and man-made havens of the Hebrides and coastlines. Contrasting large skies with calmer interior waters make for interesting studies of land and sky. The palette is an earth-toned landscape with more than a nod to the cobalts and then...orange!www.trinabohan.co.uk
Bonnar, Sharon I record human interaction in public spaces and my paintings all start with a figurative narrative. With added layers of paint the original image becomes more obscure and the story becomes more abstracted. Colour and texture live on the surface while the original figurative image lurks beneath.
Bownes, SenjaI am inspired by the dramatic skies, mountains and seas of Scotland. I love to paint outside on location whenever possible and I am constantly amazed at how quickly the light and mood of a scene can change. The stories and history of places will also inform my work.www.senja-art.com
Brownlee, RuthShetland and its constant changing weathers & seas continually provide inspiration for my work.www.ruthbrownlee.co.uk
Brook, ChrisLiving by the coast, where land meets sea provides a constant source of inspiration. I find the whole process of creating a new piece of work inspiring, from initial concept to execution. The choice of materials, and presentation are key elements in focusing the viewers attention.www.chrisbrook-artworks.co.uk

Bushe RSW, Chris
No statement available
Butler-Cole, Jane
My subject matter is usually taken from natural plant forms which I interpret in a semi-abstract manner. I wanted to capture the fragility of the crocuses emerging out of and collapsing among inspiring autumn colours.
Cameron, Elizabeth
Living in a rural landscape and having had many Scottish island holidays over the years, means that my canvases reflect many images from this life. Memories are enhanced by sketches and photographs and often several years elapse before I actually paint what setting comes to the forefront of my mind.
StrathtayArt.wix.com/gallery
Campbell, Alice
I am inspired by the sights and sounds of my home city, Edinburgh. I can look on Blackford hill everyday from my kitchen window and I’ve spent many happy times with friends and family climbing up to the observatory.
Campbell, Scott
I have an obsessive involvement with screenprinting - colour, transparency and surface. My prints evolve with no matrix, using multi-layered surfaces blended to allow light and form to develop. The unpredictability of blending dictates how I approach each piece, striving to make each one individual.
Carmichael, Evi J
Architecture, light and colour, also texture inspire me to draw and paint. Cityscapes interest me more than land or seascapes. I am very much influenced by light and shadow. I am also inspired by flowers - specially by their colours in light and shade - in still life arrangements.
Chapman, Sheila
My work is inspired by the colours and forms of local plant life in the City of Edinburgh. I see the ability of plants to regrow and flower each year as a sign of hope in life itself. May is my favourite time, with the colour explosion of the rhododendrons.
www.sheilachapman.blogspot.com
Chisholm BDes Hons, MDes, Jane
The 2 prints which I have selected were inspired by visits to the Scottish Ornithologists Club in Aberlady, East lothian. It is a beautiful peaceful building on the stunning coastline of the Forth Estuary. When I look out and watch the birds from there I slow down and become at ease.
Christie, Fanny Lam
Fanny focuses on our relationship with nature. Some of her works address ecological concerns whilst others encourage viewers to get closer to the natural world. The material and form of each artwork are influenced by the context of the theme. Her practice includes sculpture, painting and public art projects.
www.fannychristie.com
Clasen, Fiona
I am particularly inspired by the light and how it falls on simple shapes in a space. I am also continually inspired by the purity and vividness of colour that my chosen medium - pastel - provides, as well as its tactile nature
www.fionaclasen.com
Cleghorn, Janet
I love colour and pattern – they inspire my work! The aerial perspective I view my still lifes from means shapes are flattened and refined and traditional subject matter take on a quirky, more contemporary feel. The importance of the fabrics within the paintings reflect my past in textile design.
www.janetcleghorn.artweb.com
Collier, Elspeth J
I am inspired by all manner of things - nature, architecture, history, the human form, poetry, song lyrics, literature and music - but the underlying inspiration for all my work is my desire to capture the essence of my chosen subject through colour and light and to convey a sense of joy.
www.elspethjmackenzie.co.uk
Cowan, Alison
I paint a range of subjects in a semi-abstract style and the environment around me is a constant source of inspiration. I enjoy creating dramatic images and try to capture a sense of depth and atmosphere through the use of very thick paint, vibrant, contrasting colours, light and shade.”
www.alison-cowan-artwork.com
12
Crozier, Robert
My work is invariably based on things seen, adapted to the limitations of the medium I am using. The constraints of lino-cutting require simplification and selection which can often make for aesthetic satisfaction.
www.robertcrozier.co.uk
Cyster, Poppy
Poppy’s paintings are an energetic exploration of vibrant colour and intuitive composition. A wide subject matter informs her work, from aerial perspectives of the Scottish countryside to inspirations from her travels. “I strive for my work to be full of energy - energy itself is my main inspiration.
www.poppycyster.com
Damian, Yara
The search of the structure is my objective and the play of the light and colour are my inspiration. They are the elements that organise the images, transmitting the feelings produced from the observation of the natural image and directing the spectator’s look. My interest goes towards the visual schematization.
www.yaradamian.com
Davies, Robert
My work is inspired by the landscape around us its architecture, structures both permanent and temporary. I am interested in how landscapes, especially in towns and cities reflects a sense of constantly changing spaces.
www.robertdaviesphotographer.co.uk
de Koenigswarter, Berit
A beautiful blue sky, sea air and the stepped architecture of Crail inspired this etching.
www4.webng.com/beritdek
de Koenigswarter, Kari
The visual feast that is the Scottish landscape!
www.dekoenig.com
Dickie, Sandra
The colour and light of Scotland has always been an inspiration to me and my work is often influenced by land and sea, with the ever changing light, reflection and colour. The shifting clouds and the moods they evoke - magical, threatening, calm and reflective.
www.sandradickie.co.uk
Dickson, Alison
The natural world inspires my work. In still-life paintings featuring plants or birds, the simplicity and subtlety of line and colour are important. When depicting harbours I’m particularly interested in the transient nature of marks and lines on the sand and in journeys, past or yet to be travelled.
www.alisondickson.com
Divine, Aine
Whether I’m painting a landscape, a person or a bunch of flowers it’s the light that inspires me and explains the form beneath the surface. Oil paint is the perfect medium. In my work I aim to produce the same vibrancy of colour as in real life.
www.ainedivinepaintings.co.uk
Dix, Michael
Inspiration is often distracting. New ideas are continual, often changing a work nearing completion. Many things can inspire, from the simple composition of an object against an unlikely background to the behaviour of shadows. Warhol, Maurizio Cattelan, Damian Hurst and Old Masters such as Vermeer, are constant reference points.
www.michaeldix.co.uk
Doerr, Joan
My work is abstract but my source material is often derived from my immediate surroundings. I’m fascinated by the visual impact of the elements on the environment – the weathering, surfaces and atmospheres are all part of my subject matter.
www.joandoerr.com
Donald, Edina
No statement available
www.thegalleryonthecorner.org.uk
Donkin Morag
Morag finds material experimentation is an important source of inspiration. She uses many different painting methods to create atmosphere. The Muiravonside pieces are the first time Morag has worked on oil painting paper, which allows for freer mark-making and let her focus on the important aspects of the image.
www.moragdonkin.co.uk

Downie, Kate
No statement available
www.katedownie.com
Doyle, Mark
My work is inspired by the potential of print to be viewed as a tactile, three dimensional form in its own right. Through accentuating the physical characteristics of my printed work I encourage the viewer to contemplate it differently than they would a purely two dimensional picture plane.
Doyle, Maureen
I find inspiration in the natural world and especially from colour in the landscape. I often return to the same location to capture the ever changing mood, light and atmosphere.The recent series of Jacaranda trees, with their lilac and blue clusters of blossom never fail to inspire me.
www.minprints.wordpress.com
du Feu, Leo
The natural world is my focus. Landscape, nature and nature conservation issues drive me both artistically and personally. I love the drama of Scotland. I love to work outdoors in all our weathers (except hot sun!). I love the romance and mystery and intrigue of our lighthouses.
www.leodufeu.co.uk
Emmans, Helena
I am inspired by the beautiful Isle of Skye where I live. Rhythms, tides, seasons and shorelines infuse my work. I love the colours of the changing seasons and the mercurial light, weather and moods of each changing day across the landscape.
www.helenaemmansartist.com
Forsyth, Claire
Claire Forsyth works in a variety of print media to explore narrative. Traversing both urban and pastoral environments, the images explore psychogeography, place and out relationship to the land. ”Loudon Castle” depicts a theme park abandoned and returning to nature.
www.claireforsyth.com
Furneaux RSA, Paul
I am looking to make work which is contemplative, perhaps of a quieter nature, the mood being one of distillation, a captured moment. This can come from nature, the sea, a landscape, a garden, architecture or something remembered but felt anew with a new clarity.
www.paulfurneaux.com
Grant, AileenI sketch outdoors in all seasons and feel at home in the wilder landscapes of Scotland, particularly Applecross and Torridon. I am drawn to the sea in its different moods. I like to use charcoal, ink, graphite and acrylic and also love the craft of etching.
www.aileengrant.co.uk
Grant, AlisonTaking inspiration from my environment I follow my thoughts and work in a variety of media including paint, print-making and film, building up bodies of work that represent the journey as each idea is explored, constantly experimenting and searching for illusive responses that better express them.
www.alisongrantstudio.com
Gray, Georgina
Living on the west coast of Scotland it is easy for me to find inspiration, whether through scavenging items from the expansive coastline or taking photographs. The sea is very inspiring to me, symbolising unknown ventures and opportunities that I may come across.
Gressani, Laura
My inspiration comes form direct observation initially through drawings, which may then be developed as prints. In this process I try to distil what attracted me to my subject in the first instance as well as the connection felt with it as a result of its close observation.
Hajducka, Kate
Nature inspires my work as well as exploring the mediums of wax and pigment. The painting exhibited was inspired by a visit to Western Australia where all the plants, trees, birds and flowers are so different from the elements of the landscapes of Britain.
www.katehajducka.com
Hamilton, Alexander
Inspired by nature and especially by plants, Alexander Hamilton uses cynotype - an alternative, camera-less photographic technique to capture unique images of plants. He likes this technique as it is based on natural materials such as water, paper, ferric salts and sunlight. Fragments of plants on paper are particularly significant.
www.alexanderhamilton.co.uk
14
Harkes, Lynne
I’m fascinated by the way light plays with and shines through my subjects. I believe want to convey ‘heaven’ in my paintings! This fascination with creating ethereal art keeps me working. In the last few years I have been working in a more abstract way which I absolutely adore
www.lynneharkesart.co.uk
Hay, David
I live and paint in the Borders village of Yetholm and my paintings are inspired by the local landscape but also travel and places remembered. Atmosphere and the effect of changing light on the mood of my subjects are of great interest to me.
www.davidhay.org.uk
Heffernan, Catherine M
Quite simply people inspire me, particularly those who make good from the most unlikely odds and in turn serve to inspire others. As an artist I am fascinated by all aspects of the human character with an inclination toward the unlikely or even impossible path of the imagination.
www.catherineheffernan.co.uk
Helfer, Lesley
I am inspired by the rhythms and patterns I see in the landscape in and around Edinburgh. I am interested in building up layers of colour and texture, capturing a sense of light and space.
lesleyhelfer.wordpress.com
Heywood, John
In my drawing-based work I like to capture an atmosphere in the image and recreate a moment in time. A small oil painting by Corot of a farmer driving some cows from a field in the early morning has stuck in my mind and has been an inspiration.
www.johnheywood.com
Hodge, Winifred
I am continually inspired by the transient, ephemeral effects on light on land and sea and I attempt to capture my feelings and sense of wonder. Doing this in purely visual terms, within the confines of a framed picture, is a most fascinating and absorbing challenge.
www.winifredhodge.co.uk
Hope, SSA, Diana
These drawings were made in my sketchbook, from direct observation, in the unforgiving medium of pen and ink, to rule out the possibility of any correction. Such drawings are usually private to the artist, kept in the sketchbook, but they do show how we see.
www.dianahope.co.uk
Horey, Phil
Present project inspired by an old Readers Digest book on the Myths and Legends of Great Britain, read as a child in Newcastle. An Atmospheric book for fireside reading but urging you to get out, explore and soak up the atmosphere of Britains remote corners and wild romantic history.
www.fortingallart.co.uk
Johnston, Carla
Whether a print of fish skin or drawing of a boat, my work is inspired by the east coast of Scotland from Shetland to Berwick. The dark, concentrated blue of the sea with the endless sky and grasses blustering in the North Sea breeze are truly inspirational.
Jones, Kittie
My main inspiration is nature and man’s relationship with it. I am interested in conveying a sense of my own fascination, joy and wonder at the natural world and I am lucky enough to be passionate about my subject matter and am learning more all the time.
www.kittiejones.com
Jones, Lucy
Living and working in the New Town, my work is mainly inspired by the Georgian architecture. I collect a monochromatic palette of papers, all shades of white to brown and all textures and thicknesses. Experimenting with different materials and techniques, I seek new and surprising effects from happy accidents.
www.lucyjonesart.com
Kilpatrick, Alan
My work references the cultural connections between India and the UK and is influenced by themes of migration. ”The Henna Tree”, inspired by the work of Indian artisans, sits within a picture frame influenced by the art culture of the west and is now a ”settler” in the Scottish landscape.
www.alankilpatrick.com

King, Catherine
The coastline of Scotland: rocks and edges, boats and nets, the mechanisms of fishing, beaches, sea. I work in situ to record through drawing and watercolour the magnificence around me. In the studio I make painting and print which evolves as an emotional response to the point where inspiration begins
www.catherineking.org.uk
Kondracki, Henry
My work is a process of discovery and I aim to venture into uncharted territory. A critic once described me as,”...a delicate and idiosyncratic Impressionist looking back to Monet, Sisley and to Pisarro in particular, but seeing them through the long filter of 20th Century experience”.
Laird, Norman
The main inspiration comes from the landscape and seascape of Argyll,the Scottish West Coast and Island scenery. Enjoyment comes from viewing the ever changing light and atmospheric changes over the structure of rocks,trees and hills.
Lavender, Lindsey
With painting predominating her practice, Lindsey examines natural and built environments seeking simple observations often overlooked. Her work has a sense of melancholy calm, drawing the viewer in, exploring the juxtaposition of manmade and natural, the rhythm of light and shade on the seemingly ordinary; an intrigue with the everyday.
www.lindseylavender.co.uk
Law, Eileen Hilary
Most of my inspiration comes from the local landscape around Aberfeldy. I have always been interested in nature and I love trees. Reflections and light on water attract me and lighting is important in helping to capture a particular mood. Old, rusty objects inspire the capture of texture.
www.pendle-art-studio.com
Lazdina, Liene
Abstract paintings, ”Nature in Love” and ”The Woodpecker Call” uncover simplicity, peace and harmony of the day they were created, with a subtle touch of gold for your curiosity. Liene’s work is inspired by visual observations of light, colours and shapes, personal feelings and classical piano music.
www.lienelazdina.com
Lees DA, Bob
A deep affection for the landscapes and seascapes of Scotland along, with a high admiration for the work of other mostly Scottish artists, especially Gordon Wylie, are Bob’s main sources of inspiration. He enjoys experimenting with colour and texture, developing semi-abstract imagery based on natural form.
Lennie, Dr. Allan C
Recently I have been inspired by literary and art historical subjects. I am still drawing reference from a prolonged nine year stay in Japan where traditional and modern cultural phenomena hold such a fascination.
Livingstone, Kate
Observation of pattern and structure found in nature is crucial to my practice. There is an intrinsic balance to be found within the construction of minerals and organisms. My work continually references the spiritual qualities of the natural world and its ability to inspire awe.
www.katelivingstone.com
Lucchesi, Alan
I have always loved drawing, particularly animation and cartoon characters. My love of animation is apparent in my work. Through my unique, animated style I feel I capture the buildings of Edinburgh in an eye-catching but simplistic way without losing their character.
www.thegalleryonthecorner.org.uk
Lumsden, James
I create paintings from multiple translucent glazes of acrylic paint, the process being repeated layer upon layer until the painting begins to emerge. I am fascinated by how the depiction of light and space, depth and feeling can be rendered purely through process.
www.jameslumsden.blogspot.com
Lunn, Steve
The explosive strength and speed that the dancers put into their performances is astonishing and I want to show these moments drawn together in one powerful frame. The time the dancers spend perfecting their art is, I hope, reflected in my own painstaking methods of layering their images.

Mabon, Tom
For me inspiration rarely exists but I often see things which can develop into a picture. Two ospreys high over the village and an owl flying under an old railway bridge are currently in the notebook. Loving Sam Palmer’s work, I thought for years that we were related - a false dream!
Macbeth, Jan
What inspires and catches my eye is shadow - the inky and mysterious values of indigo, sepia, ultramarine and burnt sienna where you can’t distinguish shapes, is delicious, and establishing them at the beginning, but planning the lightest values against velvety darks is the most inspiring thing of all.
www.janmacbethart.co.uk
Mackay, Madeline
Land and the creatures that live in the land inspire my work. I use animals and birds to express the character of the land that they belong to, exploring the identity of land and nature by focusing on a single part of the complex system of interactions that these creatures belong to.
www.madelinemackay.com
Mackechnie RSA, John
Morar 2 is one of a series of screenprints that I have made since 2001, based in images of water without shoreline or horizon. The Arisaig region of NW Scotland inspired that work while Menorca provided the inspiration for the other, Macarella 2.
www.johnmackechnie.com
MacLean, Rona
Many things inspire my work but trees are probably my favourite subject. I love their structure, whether old and gnarly or young and stately. Dappled light on the forest floor is magical. Birches with their silvery bark and delicate branches are an endless source of fascination and inspiration.

MacPhee, Marion
Marion MacPhee uses etchings, monotypes and drawings to explore remote, coastal and marine environments. Thematically, her work is informed by history, mythology and natural isolation while technical considerations of the congruence of method and subject are strongly foregrounded.

Marshall, Alfred H
Mainly INSPIRED by nature and the mood of light on the landscape - form dissolved by atmosphere. This also applies to cityscapes where the streets and people vibrate with energy and the buildings create a dramatic light and shade.
Mason, Jenny
Jenny Mason is an Edinburgh based painter. She uses landscape as a starting point, as a place of escape to ease the busy mind. Her current work concentrates more on formal aspects of paint and fields of colour, rather than direct representation of the landscape.
www.jennymason.co.uk
McBride, Malize
My work is concerned with the physical nature of landscape and the geology that underpins it, and often incorporates graphite rubbings that reveal the textures of different rocks. My oil paintings are a more direct emotional response to these landscapes, particularly the geologically ancient ones of the Scottish northwest.
www.malizemcbride.com
McCormack, Eóin Francis
My parents and grandparents are and were very hard-working people in the physical and intellectual sense. During the painting process I think about how they lived and worked. Having thoughts of my family and their work ethic is the strongest influence behind my paintings.
www.s-s-a.org
McGarrigle, Aoife
The architecture of war and itís material remains on the landscape inspire me. Military structures which remain mostly unchanged since past conflicts create an unnerving sense of what went before. Ruins evoke a ghostly glimpse into the past prompting us to consider the nature of their existence politically and aesthetically.
www.aoifemcgarrigle.com
McKay, Margaret D.
I am inspired by many subjects - by the Scottish Highlands, crashing seas, urban environments and by the intriguing or the quirky. Inspiration can be elusive but oil paint itself is inspirational; its feel, smell, texture and wonderful range of colours and even the process of squeezing it from the tube!
www.margaretmckay.co.uk

McLaughlin, Blair
My paintings are developed from found imagery, mainly from media sources. The figure can describe so much even when painted in a simplistic, almost abstract fashion. Movement interests me, especially that of a dancer expressing any type of emotion. Edgar Degas and Francis Bacon have inspired me.
www.blairmclaughlinartist.co.uk
Moore, Emily
Until now my work has had a strong, autobiographical aspect with the subject matter and images taken from my own experiences. While drawn to mountainous, desolate landscapes I am attracted also to geometric shapes found within man-made structures, exploring the tension between these two conflicting themes.
www.emilymooreart.com
Mulready, Michael
“Light, light, light! My Inspiration is always what is the light is doing?” Without it we see nothing. By focussing on the Light and its counterbalance in Shade and Colour we can build images in a painterly way; by trusting what the light is allowing us to see.
www.artclassesedinburgh.co.uk
Murray Aitken, Eona
My inspiration comes from natural forms, including gardens and landscapes. My work is an exploration of natural textures and the effects of light and tonality. Plants and birds often appear in a recurring theme of growth and survival.
Murray, Charly
Central to Charly’s work is an understanding of the sense of places and people, and she aims to communicate this through her chosen media of watercolour and oil.
www.charlymurray.co.uk
Murray, Nicola
My practice stems from an early training in biology and an interest in the places where the natural world and human culture meet. Science and nature inspire both my subject matter and working methods. I often use alternative photographic and printing processes to create work.
www.nicolamurray.com
Murray, Gillian
I feel incredibly content when I observe and record the landscape around me, especially in more remote areas and, regardless of the conditions, I want to capture the moment and the serenity I found there. The experience of drawing outdoors is restorative and inspiring.
Nardo, Laura
So many people, many cultures... food, ingredients, different styles. Often the kitchen is where people may get inspiration, mixing their knowledge and experimenting with new ideas. That space in our house is where we can expand and share with others our creativity. Food becomes painting and vice versa.
Nelson SSA, Gayle
I am interested in personal narratives and produce work using a wide range of media and in formats which have included installation, drawing and public art. My works are often based on photographs from the seaside town where I spent my childhood, and other special places.
Onwin, Glen
Early in his career Onwin became fascinated by salt marshes, not as a subject of conventional landscape painting, but rather as a phenomenon to study with a near scientific approach. He is interested in the structure behind appearances, microscopic images, crystalline forms and the slow changes of materials over time.
www.onwin.co.uk
Outram, Cat
I am drawn to the linear; the tracery of winter branches, shapes picked out by sunlight, a view framed by a window. I am particularly inspired by the city I live in; the way it sits in its landscape, the historical centre and everday lives of those who live here.
www.catoutramprintmaker.com
Park, Linda
My inspiration comes from dramatic scenes around me. In my landscape interpretations from places such as Scotland and France, I create dynamic compositions by looking at views from acute perspectives. Working in oils, I enjoy the freedom to produce a rich and evocative world of colour, movement and texture.
www.lindaparkart.com

Pettersson, LisaIntimately familiar situations and domestic life have been a long-running theme of my painting, which bridges fine art and graphic design and I express myself in flat colours and bold, defined shapes. Some of my recent works are inspired by ‘50s children’s book illustrations and childhood nostalgia.
www.lisapettersson.com
Pettie, NeilI take inspiration from anywhere I can – the natural landscape – my imagination – printed images - the works of others – to name but a few. Whatever the source, the aim is to imbue my image with some feeling so that, hopefully, the viewer picks up these vibes. Ambitious or what? You decide.
www.neilpettie.co.uk
Philp, AlisonLiving in the country the passing of time, marked by seasons and other natural rhythms, is profound. In my landscape painting the past is ever present and child figures often feature, inhabiting the terrain as if they have become part of it in the form of animals, rocks and water.
www.alisonphilp.com
Phillips, DeborahI enjoy all aspects of creating a painting from going out into the Scottish countryside to collect reference material, priming the board, holding well-used brushes, squeezing paint and mixing the squelchy colour, applying it in swathes, varnishing and framing... every stage gives me a thrill!
www.deborahphillips.com
Phillips, SheenaThe way bursts of light illuminate the landscape inspires me. I have to feel that at this moment this is the only place I want to be.
www.sheenaphillips.co.uk
Rawnsley, IanEvocative, romantic, wild and magnificent the Sea is the never-ending inspiration and motivation for my work. The infinite changes of colour and aspect defy the artist’s hand to tame. My work tries to capture the feeling, memory and essence of the sea in its many guises.
www.ianrawnsley.com
Ridland, ForbesThe Old Masters accumulated 500 years of expertise in the craft of drawing and painting with oils but in the last 60 years artists have done their best to forget these skills. My inspiration comes from rediscovering these old techniques and placing them in a contemporary setting.
Ritchie, LeeMy primary inspirations are growth and decay, with many works deriving their starting point from landscape photography. Other influences include cinema and music.
www.leeritchie.net
Robertson, JulieI am inspired by the clouds, colours and shapes of the Scottish landscape. I am always pleasantly surprised at how the same landscape/seascape can look so different every time you visit and paint it.
www.juliespaintings.com
Robertson, MurrayRobertson’s work is underpinned by aspects of nature and the environment that lie at the core of many of our current concerns and scientific paradigms. Imagery develops from a process of experience, documentation and interpretation, employing techniques from traditional drawing and painting to 3D computer modelling.www.certainerrors.dunked.com
Robson, MichaelLiving by the shores of the River Tay, I observe how the light from the River is reflected throughout the landscape. From this enduring source of inspiration, I have developed my artistic practice as a landscape painter, working directly before the motif, seeking to represent the changing light around me.www.michaelnormanrobson.co.uk
Ross MB., ChB., FRCA, DonnieDoing things generates meaningfulness, mind creates pictures from sensations, generating pleasant feelings. Science and medicine try to exclude ambiguity from perceptions & understanding, but in art the opportunity to interpret sensory input in more than one way is a major factor in creating interesting and pleasureable states of mind.www.coco-donnieross.com
Russell, MoiraI am inspired by the variety of intriguing marks, shapes & forms in the landscape & my surroundings and by the happy accidents & textures which occur when creating the mixed media pieces which I use in my collages. I look for the unusual, unexpected or overlooked around me.www.inadifferentlight.co.uk

Ryves, Maryann
I enjoy using colour, texture and proportion to create depth in my work, and find still-lives a good subject for exploring ideas, but also paint landscapes and trees. I work in oil to attain the density of colour i want and paint from life, finishing work off in my studio.
www.maryannryves.com
Salmon, Keith
My work is based almost entirely on my experiences while walking in Scotland’s wild and sometimes remote mountains and glens. I spend many days every year wandering these spectacular places and try to capture in my work something of the ever changing conditions, the colours, atmosphere and light.
www.keithsalmon.org
Semple, Emma
My work is an investigation into the elements of the sublime, the unfixed and the hidden in nature, always searching for an idyll, escapism and the desire to seek comfort in the sublime. I aim to create illusionary, psychological spaces based on my encounters with nature.
www.emmasemple.com
Simpson, Charles
Quite simple really... a love of painting combined with a love of the Scottish landscape!
www.csimpson-art.co.uk
Sinclair, Pippa
I take equal inspiration from the sensations of the landscape and from the possibilities of paint itself. I attempt to bring to form memories of moments that I find meaningful and hope that my paintings express some of the joy and calm that I feel from my rural surroundings.
www.pippasinclair.co.uk
Smart DA, Ian
I am inspired by the landscape and architecture of the south of France and Scotland. I like drawing in the the rural settings of Catalan France and the north of Spain and seeing how different the light is in this part of the Mediterranean. I am also inspired by the effects of the weather on our own landscape.
www iansmartart.co.uk
Smith RSW, Gregor
Much of my subject matter is derived from the west coast of Scotland. The light and colour, land masses and coastal edges, moods and atmospheres combine to create an ideal climate of inspiration for me.
Smith, Jenny
Jenny Smith’s limited edition print investigates the relationship between traditional methodologies and new technologies by using writing as a form of drawing. Nine contemporary artists were asked the question ‘What is Drawing’? Can you decipher the artist’s answers? What is your answer to the question?
www.jennysmith.org.uk
Smith, Susan
The landscape, bird and wildlife of Scotland inspires my work. I work in print and paint. Both often feature the Corvus family,I had a pet crow Johnny as a child. My lino prints are created in small runs, sometimes hand coloured. My paintings are often started and completed outdoors
www.susanmcsmith.com
Soep, Jenny
To capture a moment while being immersed in it, to creatively respond to a creation - To draw the drawers, the painters, the writers, the sculptors, the boundary pushers, the poets, the dancers, the music-makers, the lovers and the every day life-livers. To ‘Draw The Experience’.
www.jennysoep.com
Stewart, Mairi
Exploring the endless possibilities and balancing colour and shape inspires my Still Life work and I find a constant source of inspiration from my surroundings. My colourful paintings are an infusion of my observations and my imagination. Colour and familiar patterns help to catch the essence of a memory.
www.mairistewart.com
Stokes, Jayne
My miniature museums or tin pieces are inspired by the journeys I make, the places I see and the objects I collect.
www.jaynestokes.com
20
Sutton-Smith, Tom
As one who has lived in a prairie landscape for a period of time my work is very much influenced by the emotions that the ever changing weather patterns and rich Scottish landscape stir in me.
www.tsutton-smith.co.uk
Tait, Sue
I am always sent into raptures by colour and flowers. I work with pure pigments, mixed with a variety of materials, and delight in the range of colours. There seems to be a never-ending palette waiting to be discovered. Early spring blooms are a particular favourite.
www.suetait.com
Taylor, Catriona
Catriona Taylor’s painting is inspired by the Scottish coastline and looking at landscape and coastal scape from google earth. She builds her painting , using maps, collage materials, text and by pouring paint onto the surface. She uses the words of the Shipping Forecast to suggest the powerful force of the sea and our attempt to try and chart it and make it safer.
www.catrionataylor.co.uk
Thomson, Marion
Light ,colour ,sky ,big spaces ,the sea, all inspire and motivate my practice.The natural world is the basis for my work using it’s influence to create works that reflect it’s inherent beauty.
Turk, LindsayI am interested in the repetitions, rhythms and cycles within the natural world. I try to capture the light and atmosphere of a single moment or a particular place and give a sense of permanence to fleeting moments and the subtleties of nature that are frequently overlooked.
www.lindsayturk.com
Tyson, GillI am drawn to remote, often bleak and harsh environments and look for incidents of man-made presence in places that appear inhospitable. It’s often a seemingly incongruous marker in the landscape - a circus poster on a pole by the Arctic Sea or a kilometre marker in the Namib Desert.
www.gilltyson.com
van Breugel, EsmeeMy work is influenced by botanical painters, Japanese artists such as Hiroshige, Georgia O’Keeffe, and van Gogh. I have developed a style which is a cross between traditional botanical painting and a more impressionistic style. I like the transparent effect of watercolour across strong pencil lines.
www.esmeevanbreugel.com
Vickers, S.S.A., MiriamNorth European Expressionism and the Romantic Tradition with an accent on colour and line influence my landscape and classical architecture visual art interest. Watercolour and copper-plate etching make up my current practice though working in oil is always an interest and consideration.
www.edinburghprintmakers.co.uk
Vigers, Maria
I paint in a variety of mediums and I also enjoy sketching and experimenting with monoprinting and collage. My inspiration is taken from nature and landscape, in particular the coastal areas and shorelines in and around Edinburgh.
www.mariavigers.com
Walters, Mary
My interest in the environment inspires my art practice. The surfaces of rocks, the restlessness of the sea, the views from the west coast of Scotland and rock formations in the Highlands all provide me with infinite material for wondering. The relationship between land and sea is fascinating.
www.mary-walters.com
Warner, Karen
Karen is generally inspired by her surroundings and the changing light and weather. Much of her current work depicts the coast and hills of East Lothian, the seascape and landscape of the Hebrides and the everyday goings on in the areas around her studio.
www.karenwarner.co.uk
Welsh, Helen
My inspiration comes from the everyday things that surround me in the beautiful Perthshire countryside where I live.
www.helenwelsh.co.uk
21
Williamson, Melanie
The ever changing Scottish landscape inspires my work. Seasonal changes and variable weather conditions provide me with continual sources of reference for my painting.
www.melaniewilliamson.co.uk
Young, Jennifer
My work is inspired by the human form and the strong messages it conveys through body language. Capturing fleeting moments of stillness and introspection, the paintings are done on vintage papers and incorporate thread woven poetically through fingers and limbs, revealing the complexity within contemplation.
jenniferyoungart.tumblr.com
Young, Michael P
My work is inspired by everyday moments in time. Much of my inspiration comes from the world around us – architecture, and the patterns, forms, reflections and colour of the natural and man-made world.
www.michaelpyoung.co.uk
JewellersBoag, AngelaLines, shapes and curves are my main influences in my work. Inspiration for my Contour collection of jewellery has come from travelling. I am fascinated by the infinite possibilities of lines, repetition, layers and shapes that are presented in ordnance survey maps, contour plots and snow forecasts.
www.angelaboagjewellery.co.uk
Hirst, Christina
The inspiration for my work is nature, the rugged bark and dripping seeds from trees, clusters of berries and blooming buds. Simplifying and abstracting these forms and textures, I translate them into metal and combine them with wood and precious stones to create beautiful jewellery.
www.christinahirst.co.uk
Sim, Dot
My designs are inspired by my rural Scottish environment – from changing landscapes, windswept beaches, and stormy seas, to the minutiae found in rock pools and the garden. I ”draw” with metal to create sculptural pieces capturing movement and quality of line.

outlet in the UK for the renowned French artist,
Pierre Yves Russo.Until now this highly collectable figurative and still life work has only been available through his gallery in Paris. Pierre Yves work has a timeless quality reminiscent of the ‘Old Masters’ such as Vermeer and Van Eyck and would not
look out of place in any National Gallery collection. No photograph can do justice to the detail, technique and finish of these paintings, they truly have to been seen to be believed. Take the time to view these beautiful and unique
works of art in our High Street Gallery.

Every day nearly 80 people in Scotland hear the devastating news that they have cancer. For those that do, it is probably the toughest experience that they have ever faced. If you, or a loved one, are diagnosed with cancer, you’ll want a team of people in your corner supporting you every step of the way. And that’s where Macmillan comes in.
Our team of medical professionals across Scotland, including Community, Breast, Lung, Skin and Palliative Care Nurses, GPs, Physiotherapists and Pharmacists, provide the highest level of cancer care, while our benefits services help people affected by cancer claim benefits to help with the financial impact cancer can have. Money raised locally allowed us to give out over £1.5 million in grants to nearly 5,000 cancer patients in Scotland last year, £52,000 of which was given out in Edinburgh.
Local fundraising has also allowed us to invest £84,500 to further develop our Macmillan information and support centre at the Western General hospital in Edinburgh and provide £80,000 to support a community-based Macmillan
information and support service for Westerhailes, one of the most deprived areas in Edinburgh. Most recently our £520,000 investment to refurbish and extend the current Macmillan Day Centre at St John’s hospital in Livingston, will allow people with
cancer to receive improved clinical and psychological support in a relaxing and soothing environment.
While its good news that, thanks to better treatments and earlier diagnosis, more people are surviving cancer, we know that the impact of the illness does not suddenly stop when treatment
is over, which is why Macmillan is investing £5 million over a five-year period into the Transforming Care After Treatment programme, in partnership with the Scottish government, NHS Scotland and local authorities. The programme aims to make sure that services are more tailored to the needs, preferences and priorities of an individual affected by cancer.
It’s thanks to the hard work and dedication of our supporters who raise so much money for us that we are able to offer this vital support to people affected by cancer locally. We don’t want anyone to face cancer alone, and their conitnued support will help us ensure that nobody does.
