Note: Pat Douthwaite was born in Glasgow in 1934. She began to study mime and modern dance with Margaret Morris, whose husband, J. D. Fergusson (Scottish Colourist) encouraged her to paint. This important influence apart, she was self-taught. In 1958 Pat lived in Suffolk with a group of painters, including the Scots Colquhoun and MacBryde, and William Crozier. From 1959-1988 she travelled widely, to N. Africa, India, Peru, Venezuela, Europe, U.S.A., Kashmir, Nepal, Pakistan, Ecuador and from 1969 lived part of the time in Majorca, but more latterly in various properties across the Scottish Borders. She died in July 2002 at Broughty Ferry. Interest in Pat Douthwaite's work has seen a major resurgence in recent years and her work has been strongly promoted by The Scottish Gallery (Edinburgh), generally considered to be Scotland's most prestigious contemporary art gallery.
