Working in a muted palette, Table Top, which was painted in the mid 1980s, displays Walker’s skill in compositional design, and an energetic and free use of her chosen medium.
I hope to encapsulate a visual instant – a sense of immediacy and imminent change but also a sense of enduring place.
Ethel Walker was born in Ayrshire in 1941 and studied at the Glasgow School of Art from 1959 to 1964. She works from her studio in Argyll and her recent practice is preoccupied with capturing the fleeting effect of light on the landscape. She has exhibited continually since 1972, predominantly between Edinburgh and London. Her works are held in a number of public collections including the Lillie Art Gallery, the Edinburgh City Art Centre and Argyll Council.
