Barbara Robertson (1945-2018)

Born in Broughty Ferry, Barbara studied Printmaking & Illustration at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, where she became a part-time lecturer for many years. Her linocuts – cats, sheep, geese, rabbits, even an occasional human being – were all more or less integral parts of the country cottage where she lived and did her printing on her huge cast iron printing press. Superbly drawn and detailed linocuts reflect her passion for the surrounding Angus landscape and the natural world she loved. She also drew inspiration from her numerous travels to Italy, Egypt and Africa. Almost invariably her prints have an essential injection of humour.

She showed in mixed groups at RSA, Printmakers’ Workshop in Edinburgh and at galleries across Scotland as well as in France and Germany. Her work is held by public collections in Aberdeen, Glasgow, Leeds and elsewhere. She lived in Douglastown, Forfar.
