Mairi Stewart studied Drawing and Painting at Edinburgh College of Art and following a successful career in teaching, retired early in order to paint full time. She works mainly in Acrylic on Canvas and Board. Has work in many private collections in UK, Europe and USA. 
 

The work is an infusion of daily observations and is an intuitive response to the connections that selected objects have with memory. She finds constant inspiration from her surroundings, be it domestic or in nature and enjoys the endless possibilities of balancing colour and shape within her compositions. She often uses flowers or fruit as poetic accents within the work which allows new sensations to be created and invites the viewer to develop their own narrative. The overall aim of the work is to capture the original essence of the memory within the final painting.
