Mhairi McGregor RSW

Mhairi McGregor RSW has gained acclaim for her highly abstracted, contemporary Colourist paintings.

Born in 1971, Mhairi studied at Glasgow School of Art gaining a BA (Hons) in Fine Art and while there she received a number of awards. After graduating in 1993 she spent some time painting in Australia and has also painted throughout Europe, in Arizona, New Mexico and Canada as well as in the United Kingdom.

Mhairi’s emotional response to subjects comes through in her paintings. Initial sketches are developed into more abstract works using a rich, fluid, impasto paint surface.

She was elected to the Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolour in 1999. Her work is in collections including the Royal Scottish Academy, Fleming Holdings and Aberdeen University.
