Featured Artists
Dame Elizabeth Blackadder
Dame Elizabeth Blackadder is a Scottish painter and printmaker. She is the first woman to be elected to both the Royal Scottish Academy and the Royal Academy. She studied at Edinburgh College of Art and then in 1962 began teaching there and continued until her retirement in 1986. Blackadder works in a variety of media such as oil paints, watercolour, drawing and printmaking. She paints portraits and landscapes but her later work contains mainly flowers and her cats. Regular trips abroad, particularly to Japan, helped stimulate her interest in colour and pattern. Her work can be seen at the Tate Gallery, the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, and the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and has appeared on a series of Royal Mail stamps.
Samuel John Peploe
Samuel John Peploe was a Scottish Post-Impressionist painter, noted for his still life works. He lived almost all his life in Edinburgh, but he often visited France. He studied briefly at the Académie Julian, and made his home in Paris between 1910 and 1913. During this time in Paris he moved from an Impressionist style to one influenced by Cézanne and the Fauves. He was a member of the group known as the Scottish Colourists along with John Duncan Fergusson, Francis Cadell and Leslie Hunter.
Edward Bawden
Edward Bawden was a successful and prolific English printmaker, graphic designer, illustrator and painter. He studied at the School of Art in Cambridge (1919-22) and at the Design School of the Royal College of Art (1922-6), where he was a contemporary of Eric Ravilious and was taught by Paul Nash.
Laura Knight
Dame Laura knight was an English landscape and figurative painter. Laura studied at Nottingham School of Art in 1900, where she met Harold Knight. After marrying in 1903, they joined an artists' colony at Staithes, Yorkshire, before moving in 1908 to Newlyn, Cornwall. In 1936 she became only the second woman elected to full membership of the Royal Academy. Her large retrospective exhibition at the Royal Academy in 1965 was the first for a woman. In her long career, Knight was among the most successful and popular painters in Britain. Her success in the male-dominated British art establishment paved the way for greater status and recognition for women artists. She was also greatly interested in, and inspired by, marginalised communities and individuals, including Romani people and circus performers.
