Note: Jock McInnes graduated from Glasgow School of Art in 1967. His unusual approach to painting using gesso as the ground allows him to not only paint on the surface but also to inscribe into it. The white nature of the gesso ground gives his paintings a particular luminosity and is a technique borrowed from the Italian Old Masters. McInnes, who is a member of the Royal Glasgow Institute, has exhibited widely throughout the U.K. and is represented in a number of Public and Corporate collections.

 

A condition report is offered as an indication of any issues visible to the naked eye. As none of our staff is a professional conservator or restorer, buyers must satisfy themselves in respect of condition and McTear’s can provide contact details of local professionals who can provide fully comprehensive expert reports, usually for a modest charge. The condition report does not form part of any contract between McTear's and the buyer, and all lots are offered "as is" in accordance with our Terms of Business available on our website.
