Feature: Local Artist<br />

‘‘Twilight skies over the city from Waterloo Bridge’<br />

60cm x 60cm, Oil on canvas<br />

highlighted – from the characterful, colourful<br />

houses in the Cinque Terre fishing villages<br />

of Liguria to the sparkling turquoise coves<br />

and spectacular vibrant sunsets in and<br />

around Antibes on the Cote d’Azur.<br />

Each magnificent oil painting mini-series<br />

complements the next, highlighting the<br />

collectable artist’s passion for skilfully<br />

expressing fleeting light onto water in a<br />

snapshot ie. that special ‘moment in time’<br />

just before or after an impending storm or<br />

the last vivid watery glimmer from sunset to<br />

sundown when the light is changing rapidly.<br />

Primrose is a master at wonderfully<br />

capturing luminosity, colour and<br />

atmosphere in his trademark style.<br />

Best-selling Artist<br />

With past sell-out solo exhibitions to his<br />

name, Jamie Primrose is regarded as one<br />

of Scotland’s most prominent, sought-after<br />

contemporary painters. Having attended<br />

The Edinburgh Academy (1977-90) and<br />

gained a Fine Art degree at Newcastle<br />

University (1990-94), he remarkably then<br />

travelled the world and worked in London<br />

for almost a decade without lifting a<br />

paintbrush. In 2003, Jamie returned home<br />

to the capital to become a professional<br />

artist and has achieved outstanding<br />

success – showcasing over 30 highly<br />

successful new solo collections in<br />

Edinburgh and London since then, his<br />

skilful work continually in demand by an<br />

ever-growing UK and international clientele,<br />

with critical acclaim.<br />

“Jamie Primrose has an incredible feel for the<br />

light of his native Edinburgh and in East Lothian”<br />

The Sunday Times<br />

"Primrose's paintings exude a heaven-sent<br />

sense of calm"<br />

The Herald<br />

"Jamie has had an astonishing degree of success<br />

with his atmospheric paintings"<br />

Galleries Magazine<br />

“Jamie Primrose’s paintings display an<br />

atmospheric, ethereal quality that makes his<br />

work so sought-after”<br />

Scottish Field<br />

collectors snapping up his work”<br />
