| biography:
| Artist, born in Glasgow, W Scotland, UK. Although he studied architecture, he was self-taught as an artist. His work, which has been likened technically to that of Piranesi, combines meticulous realism with a strong sense of composition, and his subject matters range from the architectural to portraiture and landscape. During his long career he made over 500 etchings, drypoints, and lithographs, besides many thousands of drawings and watercolours. |
