| Painter, born in Grangemouth, Falkirk, C Scotland, UK. He studied at Edinburgh College of Art (1937–40). His paintings in the subsequent decade had much in common with contemporary American abstract expressionism. His imaginative use of pictographic images suggestive of myth and magic, increasingly bold and colourful since the early 1970s, reflects his preoccupation with Zen and oriental mysticism. |
