Donald M.Paterson RSW

DONALD M.PATERSON grew up on Skye, attending Portree High School from 1963 to 1969. He then studied at Glasgow School of Art, before becoming a teacher of art, a career he has pursued ever since, while continuing to paint and to exhibit widely. He was elected RSW in 1986. 

The main source of my work is derived from a strong affinity for my roots in North West Scotland, specifically in the Skye area, although it is the product of a combination of direct experiences, observations, memories, photographic recordings, sketches etc. Each drawing, painting or construction becomes concerned with achieving a personally coherent and meaningful balance and departing by varying degrees from the original stimulus. Regular visits to France also provide stimulus.
