John, who graduated from and subsequently taught at Edinburgh College of Art showed with The Scottish Gallery from the late 1950’s. His vibrant, expressive oils and watercolours will be familiar to many. He was honoured with a major retrospective at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art in 2005. His death in 2008 has saddened all who care for the best of Scottish painting. He is greatly missed.
