Elizabeth MacGregor

I'm a graduate of RGU Grays School of Art where I specialised in Drawing and Painting.​



I use different mediums, mainly acrylics, oils, gouache and pen and ink to explore the genres of Landscape and Still Life.

​

My appreciation for Art encompasses various cultures and movements. In particular, I enjoy the work of the French Impressionists, the Fauves, and the Glasgow Boys, all of whom have helped shape my creative development.

​

In an ever changing world, the tranquil havens of the Moray coast are a ready source of subject matter for my paintings. Everything from dramatic light, colours and shapes of cottages, patterns of shingle, to the peaceful calm of a gentle sea breeze help focus thoughts and ideas.

​

The small fishing village of Sandend provides particular inspiration for me, regardless of season or mood. During my student years, I was greatly influenced by the passion Joan Eardley felt towards Catterline; nowadays I can appreciate how easy it is to fall under the spell of such magical places.

​

I consider myself privileged to live and work in Moray, where some of Scotland’s most vibrant coastal scenery continues to inspire me.
