* PETER WHITE (SCOTTISH b. 1959), THE SECOND HAND SHOP mixed media on board, signed, titled and dated 1989 versomounted, framed and under glassimage size 62cm x 72cm, overall size 82cm x 92cm Note: Peter White (b. 1959) is a Scottish artist known for his almost geologically-textured paintings of apparently simple subjects – a head, boat, book or bowl. Peter White elevates these hollow things into something powerful. They become vessels which contain a life-force, or a memory of the life which once existed in them. White has developed his technique over many years, now using a mixture of oil, acrylic and wax to create these works which can be monumental or the scale of personal icons. Peter White was born in Ayrshire, studied at the Edinburgh Collage of Art, and since the mid-1990s has lived and worked in the North West of Scotland.

* STEVEN CAMPBELL (SCOTTISH 1953 - 2007), UNTITLED oil on card, signed and dated 1989 versoframed and under glass image size 49cm x 39cm, overall size 65cm x 54cm Note: Steven Campbell was born in Glasgow and originally worked as a maintenance engineer in a steelworks in Cambulsang before attending Glasgow School of Art and becoming one of the leading Scottish figurative painters of his generation. Campbell worked alongside the artists Ken Currie, Peter Howson and Adrian Wiszniewski, a group which later became known as the 'New Glasgow Boys'. While their artistic output was not homogenous they all shared an interest in figurative painting during the early 1980s which broke away from the conceptual and minimal trends in Modern art at the turn of the twentieth century. After graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 1982 Campbell won a Fulbright Scholarship to study at the Pratt Institute in the United States. Campbell worked from a studio in Brooklyn until 1986 and this period was key in establishing his status as an internationally renowned artist whilst raising awareness of Scottish contemporary art on a global scale.
* DOROTHY JOHNSTONE ARSA (SCOTTISH 1892 - 1980), PORTRAIT OF LIZ AS YOUNG GIRL oil on board, signed and dated 1974 framed image size 45cm x 38cm, overall size 58cm x 51cm Provenance: by descent through the artists family Note: Having been one of the first students at the newly-established Edinburgh College of Art (ECA), Johnstone began exhibiting at the Royal Scottish Academy (RSA) in 1912, followed by the Royal Glasgow Institute in 1913 and at the Royal Academy of Arts in London in 1915. She focussed on figure painting, often on a sizeable scale. In recognition of her readily-achieved professional standing and due to the mobilisation of male staff following the outbreak of World War One, Johnstone began teaching at ECA in 1914. The studio facilities she enjoyed there, plus the stimulus provided by her students meant that her work developed apace. She spent most summers between 1915 and 1924 in Kirkcudbright, often staying in one of Jessie M. King's cottages, and became a key figure in the town's art circles. Meanwhile, in 1919 Johnstone joined the re-convened exhibiting society, the Edinburgh Group, whose members included Cecile Walton, Eric Robertson and David Macbeth Sutherland. A joint exhibition with Walton in 1924 led to the artists being described as 'two brilliant daughters of Scotland'. However, Johnstone's wedding to her ECA colleague David M Sutherland that year meant she had to resign her from her job, as the 'Marriage Bar' legislation prevented married women from holding full-time teaching positions. With the birth of her children and her husband's appointment as Head of Gray's School of Art in Aberdeen, Johnstone's career lost momentum. She continued to paint as domestic responsibilities permitted and was elected an Associate Member of the RSA in 1962. Her death in 1980 was marked by a Memorial Exhibition mounted at Aberdeen Art Gallery in 1983.
