Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell RSA is one of the four artists known as the Scottish Colourists. He studied in Paris and lived in Munich before settling in his native Edinburgh around 1909. He is perhaps the most elegant of the Colourists, renowned for his stylish portrayals of Edinburgh New Town interiors and his vibrantly coloured, daringly simplified still lifes.
Ann Oram generously took time out earlier on in the year to judge the ‘Dry Media’ category as part of the Jackson’s Open Painting Prize (she decided to award the prize to Anna Roberts for her pastel ‘Oranges’). When she wasn’t judging our prize, Ann was busy painting, exhibiting, and discussing her work with publications and enthusiasts across the globe! We wanted to find out more about what Ann Oram – a modern day Scottish Colourist – has been up to this year. Lisa: You judged our ‘dry media’ category prize earlier this year, as part of the Jackson’s Open Painting Prize 2017. What’s it like judging art in this way and what was it about Anna Roberts’ winning entry ‘Oranges’ that stood out for you? Ann: I liked the fact that it was an ordinary everyday subject. Beautifully executed. Simple. Good colour. Lisa: I last interviewed you back in 2013, prior to your exhibition at Brian Sinfield Gallery. What path has your work taken since we last made contact? Ann: I’m not sure that I’ve changed radically. The same subjects still intrigue me. But I suppose I always look for new ways of developing them. It could be ...
About Scott Naismith Clearing Mist Original Mixed Media Painting Oil Paint, Acrylic Paint and Spray Paint on Linen Canvas. Canvas Size: H 99.5cm x W 100cm x D 3cm Frame Size: H 109.5cm x W 110cm x D 4.5cm Sold Framed in a Dark Grey Box Frame Clearing Mist is an original landscape painting by Scottish artist, Scott Naismith. This mixed media painting including oil, acrylic and spray paint on a linen canvas features a vibrant and colourful depiction of an abstracted version of the Scottish Landscape. The painting involves an impasto style which gives the work more texture, allowing the landscape to come to life and the light of the sun shine through the painting. Scott uses vivid colours in a vigorous application to represent the fast changing light conditions of the West coast of Scotland. Colour use often becomes an entirely emotional response to the subject while values can remain representational. The love he has for his native Scottish countryside is portrayed in his work through an ebullient energy with which he handles the colour with palette knife and brush. Scott’s recent work concentrates on transitional skies and the many colours involved when light breaks through cloud. These changing skies from dark to light are a metaphor for optimism and hope. After a miraculous recovery from cancer by his father, recent marriage and birth of his 2 children, Scott draws upon a great positivity and energy. Landscape artist Scott Naismith studied at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee. In June 2000 landscape and seascape artist Scott Naismtih left with a BDes in Illustration and printmaking. Since graduating Scott Naismith has been a full time artist, working from his studio in Glasgow. Much of his time is spent travelling around the country looking for inspiration for another depiction of the Scottish landscape. Scott Naismith’s paintings are derived from his love of the Scottish landscape and is portrayed through the energy in his paintings. The vigorous application of paint represents the ever-changing light and atmospheric conditions of the west coast of Scotland. Scott Naismith explores with colour which may not be entirely representational, moreover his emotional response to the subject.Clearing Mist is an abstract impressionist painting by Scott Naismith.

The Colourist is a unique Bookazine (bigger than a magazine, smaller than a book) dedicated to Annie Sloan’s passion for color. It is a collectable, bi-annual publication of 132 carefully curated pages bound in a covetable cover. In Issue 1, Annie focused on a Chalk Paint® palette of Antibes Green, Antoinette and Scandinavian Pink. The issue also includes a free Tile stencil designed by Annie Sloan.
The Scottish Colourists, a group of painters who left their homes and families in the early-20th century to find inspiration, mainly in France, are some of the most notable of this sprawling group.

Francis Campbell Boileau Cadell (1883-1937) was one of a four-man group known as the Scottish Colourists: his wikipedia entry is here. The Colourists (I'll use the British spelling in this post) were influenced by Post-impressionism and perhaps Fauvism. They succeeded the previous-generation Glasgow Boys (scroll down) who were influenced by Jules Bastien-Lepage. Cadell was socially well-connected, living for a number of years in a fashionable Edinburgh neighborhood (Ainslie Place) a few blocks from the west end of Princes Street. He tended to live higher than his inheritance and painting sales could support and was essentially broke when he died from cancer and liver disease aged 54. What little tangible estate he had (probably mostly in the form of unsold paintings) was willed with a few stated exceptions to his housemanager/companion Charles Oliver. Unlike the other Colourists, Cadell enlisted for the Great War and was twice wounded. As for his mature art, his subjects ranged from portraits to interior scenes to still lifes to plein-air works. Some pre-war paintings were done in a loose style, but his later work tended to be carefully composed with defined edges. For one known for color, his works tended to feature significant areas painted in pure black and much of the rest were flatly painted in pure or tinted grays. These served as contrast to other colors that then stood out. In a number of interior scenes from the 1920s he included a Chinese Red chair as a prop that provided a considerable color jolt. I have yet to see a Cadell in person, so will assume that their general appearance is colorful. Here are examples of his work. They are in rough chronological order (he seldom dated his work), and some titles might be conjectural. Gallery Ben More from Iona - c.1913 This was from his first visit to the island. Cadell went there many times in the 1920s and early 30s. Afternoon - 1913 An interior scene painted when his style was relatively loose. The Black Hat - c.1914 From the same period. He used a black hat as a prop for many of his portraits of ladies. Portrait of a Lady in Black - c.1921 This is one of his better-known paintings. Post-war, he tightened his brushwork and incorporated flatly painted areas. A good deal of black is used here while the rest of the color is limited to pastel shades. The Embroidered Cloak - c.1923 This painting used a similar color scheme to the one shown above. A Lady in Black - c.1925 Still more similar colors. The Orange Blind - c.1927 Blacks and grays set off the orange, gold and blue-green.
