Artists sign up for Hospitalfield’s summer programme

The Hospitalfield centre for art and culture in Arbroath has attracted two top Scottish artists to contribute to its summer masterclass programme.

Joyce Cairns, a painter known for her dominant female figures, returns over two days to join artist Rebecca Westguard in delivering the advanced figure and life masterclass from August 8-12.

Joyce is possibly best known for her War Tourist exhibition.

Patricia Cain, last year’s winner of both the Aspect Prize and the Threadneedle Prize, has made a reputation from her forensically detailed work, tracking the building of the Riverside museum of transport in Glasgow designed by Zaha Hadid.

Patricia will deliver a five-day masterclass on location drawing and painting from July 25-29.
