  • Lexicon of Inverclyde's Artists 1800-1939
    Lexicon of Inverclyde’s Artists 1800-1939 This document is intended to provide an overview of artists connected to Inverclyde who were working in the period 1800-1939. It includes artists who worked in the Inverclyde area as well as those who were born in the area but who have made their career elsewhere. Inverclyde, in addition to producing many professional artists, has also been home to many amateur artists who exhibited occasionally at professional venues. They have also been included. Inevitably the surviving documentation provides less evidence for the lives and careers for these amateur artists but sources such as the census and local street directories have helped to provide some details of their background. A Anderson, Nina (active 1886-1938) Miss Nina Anderson was a painter of landscapes, flower pieces and portraits. She lived at 35 Fox Street, Greenock and in Edinburgh. She is known to have exhibited at the Royal Scottish Academy in 1889 and also at the Glasgow Institute and at the Greenock Art Club exhibitions. Two paintings by her: A Fishwife and Seascape with Rocks are in the collection of North Tyneside Council, and were painted in 1905. Anderson, T.M. (active 1886-1903) T.M. Anderson was an amateur Gourock based artist who lived at Berry Bank, Ashton between 1886 and at 47 Ashton Road, Gourock between 1902 and 1903. Anderson, William (active 1884-1886) It seems likely that William Anderson was a relation of the T.M. Anderson listed above as he is also recorded as living at Berry Bank, Ashton Gourock between 1884 and 1886.

  • Community Art
    Community Art So you want to be an artist: I always knew I wanted to be an artist, however, I enrolled in an Art History/English academic degree, and ended up leaving before I graduated as I needed to follow my heart with being an artist... Then I built up a portfolio at Leith School of Art and applied to art college.I did a foundation couse at Newcastle School of Art, followed by a degree in Fine Art at Staffordshire University, which focuses on sculpture and painting. It used to be free, but now only the Scottish Colleges are free. Scottish art colleges are: Edinburgh College of Art Glasgow School of Art Gray’s School of Art Duncan and Jordanstone These courses are 4 years or with an MA, 5 years. The English system is different: one year foundation course, and then a 3 year degree. Fine Artist: Sculpture, Painting, Intermedia, Photography. There are many other art courses. From curating to digital technologies, or those in Design. Designer: Animation Design Design Informatics Fashion Film and TV Glass Graphic Design Illustration Interior Design Interior Design and Architecture Jewellery and Silversmithing Performance Costume Product Design Textiles I learn by doing, taking courses, but also by self teaching, making mistakes and learning from them. Community/ Participatory artist How to make a living as an artist: 1.Teach: Learning how to teach my techniques to other people- at Edinburgh ​ Sculpture Workshop in Newhaven which led eventually to a job teaching Sculpture at Edinburgh College of Art Community Art 2.

  • Curriculum Vitae Clare Galloway
    CURRICULUM VITAE CLARE GALLOWAY 2017 CONTACT The Arthouse, Via Filippo Maria Guidi 15, 82034, Guardia Sanframondi, BN, Italy www.claregalloway.com www.thersoa.com [email protected] 334 1969 372 ARTIST’S STATEMENT During the past 25 years, I’ve explored a dynamic understanding of creativity as a transformative force; a way of making our own reality, evolving the self, and radiating the maximum energy and positive effect outwards from ourselves. From Scotland, I have travelled extensively, and have lived abroad a lot, I’ve studied intensively, I’ve transformed landscapes, grown food, and guided individuals and communities towards real empowerment. In all these years, I’ve also developed a unique visual language and a very particular integrated philosophy on human experience. My artworks are figurative and landscape, using themes like the family, relationships, masculine and feminine (yin and yang), energy and consciousness. I work in a profoundly intuitive and spontaneous way – like meditation, or waking-dreaming. My art can be seen in the context of my personal life story, and it also resonates with the collective experience. The characters in the paintings are archetypal and autobiographical. I survived an infancy and youth with above-average levels of violence and poverty, and suffered ill health during my 20s and 30s. But I found a healing path through my art practise. I always took the road-less-travelled, so as not to compromise my profound sensitivity and alternative beliefs. I followed signs and a personal spiritual journey, instead of choosing to earn money as my priority. And I developed my vision and my capacity to talk a deeper truth – through many adventures and a diversity of experiences.
