More About The Artist...

A sell-out star at Glasgow School of Art’s degree show in 2007, Jack Frame has been building steadily on this early promise, working through his fascination with trees and the natural world as a metaphor for the bigger picture.

Still in his mid-20s, Frame, who was shortlisted for the prestigious Jolomo Award for Landscape Painting in 2009, is hotly tipped to become one of Scotland’s most collectable contemporary artists. An exhibition of the finalists work, including Jack’s will be taking place in London this September.
Frame has just completed a successful showing of his work at the RGI Gallery in Glasgow this August and thereafter will be taking up the post of Artist in Residence at The Studio Fine Art Company, Glasgow’s newest contemporary Gallery in Bath Street http://www.thestudiofineart.com/ where his work will be on permanent exhibition. At the Gallery you will have the opportunity to meet Jack Frame and as well as the exhibited work you can commission a more personal piece from the artist himself. Please read on and I will tell you how to bid...
