Morag Muir Art
Morag Muir was born in Glasgow in 1960. She studied fine arts at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art & Design, University of Dundee, from 1978–82. She completed a year of postgraduate study in 1983, winning the John Milne Purvis Prize and the Major Travelling Scholarship, which financed her further study in Italy. Muir has tutored at various colleges throughout her working life, but due to increasing demand for her work, she made the decision to focus on her painting career, becoming a full-time artist in 2006. Muir works from her studio in Newport-on-Tay in Fife, Scotland, which has beautiful views across the Firth of Tay. Her still-life work incorporates narratives that develop when characters and objects begin to populate the canvas. Windows, flowers, textiles, toys and ethnic bric-a-brac share ambiguous spaces. The finished paintings portray layers of her personal life interwoven with her surroundings and collected memorabilia. Muir is one of Scotland's most prolific and dedicated contemporary painters. Muir’s work is held in private collections around the world and she currently exhibits throughout the UK.
