Meet Pat and Caroline


Pat and Caroline both live in Fife and are practising artists.
They both graduated with Fine Art Degrees from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in Dundee and Pat also has a Masters in Fine Art from Dundee too. They both are members of Central Fife Artists Collective and exhibit in Central Fife Open Studios.
They have also exhibited and curated their work in group exhibitions and had several joint exhibitions.
Pat worked for DC Thomson as an illustrator then went to DOJ College of Art. She went on to work part-time as an Art Tutor for Fife College and for various other organisations including SAMH
(Scottish association for mental health) and Scottish Women’s Institutes.
Patricia works instinctively making connections with what is happening in her life through the exploration of a diversity of materials and techniques while remaining open to possibilities.
Her family, living by the sea and former work as an illustrator continues to inform her work.
Previous residencies have included Skye, Norway, Florence and Sculpture Space in Utica in the USA.
She has exhibited extensively and been selected for RSA and RSW exhibitions and The Sunday Times Watercolour annual exhibition.
Caroline's work is inspired by the natural world, encompassing both realistic and semi-abstract seascapes. Working across a range of media, including oil and acrylic painting, screenprinting, video, and installation, her practice explores the atmosphere, movement, and changing character of coastal environments.
She has exhibited a number of times at the Royal Scottish Academy, Edinburgh, and in numerous group shows in the UK. In addition she has shown internationally and had a solo exhibition in Kyoto, Japan.
Alongside her artistic practice, Caroline has experience in arts education. She has taught arts and crafts in schools and delivered ceramic painting workshops.
Pat and Caroline look forward to welcoming you to their workshops which are held in Room 2, Kings Theatre building on the esplanade in Kirkcaldy. It's a beautiful room with a view over the water. They are excited to share their creative talents in a lovely relaxed environment. All abilities are welcome and they will help you learn new skills, and create your own unique artwork to take home.
