Note: Born in Dundee in 1954, Joan Gillespie studied painting at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee and completed her Diploma course at Edinburgh College of Art. Over the years she has found affinity with the works of some of the Impressionists, the Nabis, the Newlyn School, the Glasgow Boys and the Scottish Colourists. Composition, paint quality and colour distribution in painting are very important to her. Her works are in the collection of Lord McFarlane of Bearsden, Trinity International Holdings and in private collections in Spain, Australia and USA. Joan Gillespie has exhibited in galleries throughout Scotland since 1987 including the Macaulay Gallery in East Lothian, The Open Eye and Flying Colours Galleries in Edinburgh, the Atholl Gallery in Dunkeld and the Contemporary Fine Art Gallery in Eton. Her paintings have been hung in the Royal Scottish Academy, The Royal Glasgow Institute, The Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolours and the Society of Scottish Artists and Artist Craftsmen. She was a finalist in the Morrison Portrait Competition 1991 at the Royal Scottish Academy in Edinburgh as well as a finalist in the Laing Landscape Competition 1992 at the Mall Galleries, London.
