Born in Fife
in 1952, Brian Petrie trained in Graphic design at Napier College
in Edinburgh before Joining DC Thomson in Dundee as a magazine designer.
In 1995, he left to pursue a freelance career as a cartoonist, producing
the cartoon strip “Chic ‘n’ Sammy for the Sunday
Mail and The Sporran Legion for The Scottish Sun where he now supplies
a daily topical cartoon.
The very nature of the topical cartoon means it’s a tea time
to supper time shift!
The rest of the working day is spent painting from his studio overlooking
the waves at Westhaven on the Angus coastline. His inspiration comes
from regular trips, armed with a camera and sketch book, around
the coasts and islands of Scotland.
Brian works mainly in oils and acrylics and his paintings are on
show in a number of carefully chosen Galleries throughout Scotland.
