Note: "My experience as Historic Environment Scotland’s first artist in residence at Stirling Castle proved a crucial time in my development as a professional artist. Here, I painted the strong energies of this ancient place, producing vividly-imagined historic work. In subsequent years I was invited back by HES to exhibit commemorative work marking the Battles of Flodden and Bannockburn and the life of Marie de Guise, mother of Mary, Queen of Scots. Throughout my life I have learned from many other wonderful makers of art and have honed my own expression to include agitated, textured surface from which the images can emerge in inventive colour and media."
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.
