Artist - Mairi Stewart

Mairi Stewart studied Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of Art graduating in 1977. Following a successful career in teaching she now paints full time from her Edinburgh studio. Her work is an infusion of daily observations and she is constantly inspired by the relationship that objects have with memory. She enjoys the endless possibilities of balancing colour and shape within her compositions, often using flowers or fruit as accents within the work.

The overall aim is to capture the original essence of a memory within the final painting and allow the viewer to develop a personal narrative.

Mairi works mainly in Acrylics on Canvas or Board. She exhibits her work widely in galleries throughput the Uk. She is an Artist member of PAI with work in many private collections in Uk, Europe and the USA.
