As the gales subside and we start seeing the sun again it is a pleasure to welcome so many artists back to the gallery with a wide variety of works.

Annette Edgar - Pink Trees. This senior Scottish artist has a most fluid way of painting and this with the luscious colours she favours presents the viewer with a very pleasing picture.

Patti Yuill - Wholesome.A late comer to the art world, Patti started her degree at Edinburgh College of Art in her 40s. She is inspired by the old photographs of families in times past and combines these with modern colours leaving the faces in graphite as an acknowledgment of their photographic past.

Joyce Borland - Finzean Winter, nr Banchory Joyce could be described a s a new colourist. Her use of colour brings a winter landscape in dappled light alive.

Marion Drummond - Golden Even Wordsworth might be overwhelmed by the joys of Spring on viewing Marion's daffodils.

Mika Mayovich - Jasmine - Many European artists are drawn to Glasgow School of Art . Mika obtained her degree here a few years ago and enjoyed it so much she stayon on.

Ian Ritchie - Hind's Daughter, Still lIfe, Homage to Guthrie - A nod to a previoous era with the postcard of Guthrie's girl in the kaleyard this painting by Ian combines a modern look at a cabbage with a piece over a hundred years old.

Louis McNally - Aberlady A winter's day caught at Aberlady where snow has fallen and the sky promises more yet to come.

Alex Dewars - The Royal Boxes Visitors to Edinburgh are often charmed by these three telephone boxes huddled togther as if against the snell winds coming from the Forth.
