GREGORY MILLAR

Gregory Millar specialises in linocut printmaking.

Gregory studied graphic design and printmaking at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art in Dundee, before following a career in graphic design at the BBC in London. He has also worked with creative agencies on brand identity projects around the globe. He has now come full circle and returned to his loves of linocut printmaking and oil painting.

Gregory’s design style is inspired by numerous influences including the timeless clarity of classic Japanese woodblock prints and the honest realism of the great Flemish painter Breughel. His paintings and linocut prints are often large in size. The finished results are strong figurative images, based on a wide range of everyday experiences which hopefully evoke an emotional connection with the viewer. Gregory’s subject matter is drawn from landscapes, sports and his young family.

Gregory is a member of the Society of Scottish Artists and the Leicester Print Workshop.
