Francis Boag
|
Francis
Boag was born in Dundee in 1948 and studied at Duncan of Jordanstone
College of Art in the late sixties. The influence of his tutors, Alberto
Morrocco and David McLure, can be seen in his use of vibrant colour
and sensuous application of paint. Francis enjoyed a successful teaching
career in Dundee and Perth before becoming Head of Art at Aberdeen
Grammar School in 1989.

During
this time his success in the commercial gallery market enabled him
to leave education and become a full-time professional artist in June
2001. Francis now exhibits widely throughout the UK and is becoming
known in the international market. A successful one-man show in Dublin
was followed by the sale of several large paintings at the New York
Art Fair and a successful exhibition of his work in Seattle. And last
year saw the publication of several images of his work for the international
childrens charity, UNICEF. He is the first Scottish artist to be included
in their permanent collection.
Francis has exhibited several times at the Atholl Gallery before. |
