* CLAIRE HARKESS RSW (SCOTTISH b 1970), KINGFISHER watercolour on paper, signed and dated '96 23cm x 16cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Claire Harkess was born in Ayr, Scotland, graduating from Glasgow School of Art in the early 1990s. In recent years her painting has taken her to fragile lands to study and interpret life on the edge. Antarctica, Outback Australia and St Kilda are all places where, in such extreme environments, survival is difficult and the balance of life is delicate. Six hundred miles due west of Ecuador surrounded by the Pacific Ocean lie the Galápagos Islands, made famous by Charles Darwin’s ‘The Origin of the Species’. This isolated volcanic outpost remained relatively untouched by man, evolving to become one of the World’s unique ecosystems. The balance present in nature is clearly communicated through the paintings. Painting in watercolour offers a unique directness; the essential qualities of light and energy present in the natural world are the very essence of the medium itself. The delicacy of her palette and oriental economy of her mark-making creates a subtle tension representing a world that is ‘holding still’, giving a sense of freedom, spirit, time and place. Claire's work is exhibited at The Scottish Gallery and at other prestigious galleries around the UK.

Dawn exhibits her work in the UK and France.

* JENNIE TUFFS (BRITISH b 1943 - ), STILL LIFE WITH YELLOW FLOWERS acrylic on paper, signed 63cm x 48cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Note: Jennie Tuffs is originally a Londoner who is now based in rural Scotland near Edinburgh. Her paintings of flowers are recognised, not least by botanists, for their ability to capture and release the spirit trapped in the heart of the bloom. During the 1960's Jennie trained at St Martin's School of Art & Goldsmiths College in London and at the Academia dei Belli Arte in Florence. Jennie's work has been shown in solo and mixed exhibitions nationwide and her work is collected internationally.

* CARLO ROSSI RSW RGI (SCOTTISH 1921 - 2010), STILL LIFE monotype, signed and dated '89 43cm x 53cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Label verso: Compass Gallery, 178 West Regent Street, Glasgow. Note: Monotyping produces a unique print, or monotype, made by drawing or painting on a smooth, non-absorbent surface. The surface, or matrix, was historically a copper etching plate, but in contemporary work it can vary from zinc or glass to acrylic glass. The image is then transferred onto a sheet of paper by pressing the two together, usually using a printing-press. Monotypes can also be created by inking an entire surface and then, using brushes or rags, removing ink to create a subtractive image, e.g. creating lights from a field of opaque colour. The inks used may be oil based or water based. With oil based inks, the paper may be dry, in which case the image has more contrast, or the paper may be damp, in which case the image has a 10 percent greater range of tones. Carlo Rossi created an exceptional body of work using the monotype process and was an enthusiastic exponent of the medium.

* GILLIAN GOODHEIR DA (SCOTTISH b 1949), WINTER SUNSET gouache on paper, signed and dated '96 30.5cm x 24.5cm Mounted, framed and under glass. Labels verso: Fitzroy Gallery; The Torrance Gallery, 29b Dundas Street, Edinburgh; together with aritst label inscribed with title and dated Mar '96. Note: Gillian was born in Glasgow and studied at Glasgow School of Art, specialising in Drawing and Painting. She graduated in 1967 then took a Post Diploma. She then taught art in Glasgow but in 1975 she and her husband moved to mid-Argyll where she has lived and worked ever since. Gillian Goodheir's paintings reflect her surroundings, the ever-changing weather and light in the west of Scotland but also the south of France where she spends time, when she can. As well as landscape she excels in Still Life, combining flowers, textiles and decorative objects. Her preferred medium is gouache which she handles in a fluid spontaneous style, capturing light and colour. Her work is in collections throughout the U.K. (including the Permanent Collection of the Palace of Westminster) as well as in the U.S.A., Canada, Hong Kong, Holland, France and New Zealand.
