Artist Biography

James Cowie (1886-1956) was a Scottish artist and teacher. Cowie was one of the most individual Scottish painters of the 20th century. Whereas the central tradition of modern Scottish painting has been one of rich colouring and lush, free brushwork (as with the Scottish Colourists), Cowie worked in a strong, hard, predominantly linear style—highly disciplined rather than intuitive (he made many preparatory drawings and often worked on a picture for several years). His work displayed meticulous draughtsmanship which was based on his studies of the Old Masters and his use of many preparatory drawings.
