This is a great compliation of Traditional #Folk #Music from #Scotland! Many of the songs are in Scots. The artist is also worth following as well - there are not many traditional folk artists in the Fediverse (yet!)...though if you know of […]

Needlefelted Westie dog with green and blue background.
Needlefelted mongrel dog black white and tan with big ears.
#BlueSkyArtShow when doing my pet portraits I prefer not to have any #background so that the focus is on the pet. Sometimes it’s necessary for me to create a bit of colour in the #backgtound so white or light coloured dogs stand out. #petportraits #westie #fibreart #neeflefelting #Scottishartist

Three women occupy a spare interior that feels part backstage room, part stage set. At left, one dancer sits on a low support, her body relaxed but attentive, her head turned toward the others. She has deep brown skin, dark hair pulled back with a rose-pink scarf, and wears a bright pink dress over soft white ruffles that spill across her lap. At center, a second dancer stands in a luminous powder-blue gown, its gathered skirt swelling outward in tiers marked by pink rosettes plus bare shoulders and airy sleeves. Her posture is upright and poised. At right, a third dancer leans inward, her dark hair tied with a pink ribbon and her pale grey dress belted in blue. Behind them, a weathered wall shifts from cream and gold to a broad field of rusty red, while a turquoise table anchors the middle. Scottish artist William Russell Flint softens edges and lets brushwork breathe, so fabric, skin, and light feel alive. The women are dressed for a performance , but the scene itself is quiet, almost conversational. Instead of catching them in overt motion, Flint pauses them between movements, allowing attention to rest on mood, relationship, and individuality. Victoria, Ora, and Serafina are named as people, not merely as decorative “types,” even though some later reproductions circulated with outdated and racist wording that flattened their identities. Painted in 1948, the work belongs to a late, highly accomplished phase of Flint’s career, just after he was knighted in 1947. He was celebrated for graceful draftsmanship, theatrical interiors, and his ability to turn cloth, gesture, and light into atmosphere. Yet this painting has more gravity than charm alone. The seated woman’s inward focus, the central woman’s calm command, and the right woman’s attentive lean create a triangle that feels like a natural conversation all while the painting also invites questions about spectatorship, race, performance, and who gets to be seen as fully present within art history.

Black and white photocopy of a paper collage. We see the words ‘it’s showtime’ from cut out magazine words in the top left corner. The typed words “my ex girlfriend barely survived my abuse was crazy” are in the middle but “barely surviving my abuse” is struck through. Those words are next to a cut out image of a creepy looking male sailor doll, he holds separately cut out wine bottle and glass. On the left of the picture is a cut out image of a porcelain doll girl, her gaze is looking to the side like she’s creeped out, she holds a coffee mug. In between the folds are flowers in a table. The background to the whole picture is a photo image of a fancy English country house.
This older work is probably my favourite #collage so far!

Kibble Palace, Glasgow Botanic Gardens - soft pastels and charcoal on paper - drawn on location Summer 2025 - collhamilton.bigcartel.com/product/kibb... #scottishartist #glasgowwestend
A double portrait shows two young women outdoors in a garden-like landscape. At left, Dido Elizabeth Belle, a young Black woman, leans forward in motion with a direct, lively gaze and smile, her head tilted toward us. She wears a luminous white satin dress with a low neckline, pearl jewelry, and a white turban topped with a dark feather. She carries a basket of grapes and peaches in her arm. At right, Lady Elizabeth Murray, a young white woman, sits in a pink-and-white silk gown with lace trim, floral hair ornaments, and a pearl choker. She holds an open book in one hand while the other reaches toward Dido, visually linking them. A blue drapery sweeps between them. Light blue sky opens behind Dido while deeper shade trees frame Elizabeth, creating a dynamic contrast of movement and poise. This rare dignified representation of a Black woman in 18th-century British portraiture presents Dido and Elizabeth as intimate companions and near social equals. Yet, it is also layered with hierarchy and coded symbolism as Elizabeth’s book and composed pose suggest education and gentility, while Dido’s fruit, feathered headwrap, and animated movement convey Georgian ideas of exoticism and empire. That tension is central to the work’s power. Dido, the daughter of a Royal Navy captain and an enslaved mother, was raised at Kenwood House in Lord Mansfield’s household, where she was educated and lived in relative comfort, but not as fully equal in domestic and social practice. As Lord Mansfield was one of Britain’s leading judges, Dido’s life also intersects with the legal history of slavery in Britain. He is closely associated with the landmark Somerset v Stewart (1772) decision, which limited the forced removal of an enslaved man from England without legal basis, while stopping short of abolishing slavery across the empire. This portrait’s warmth and visual closeness form a rare image of kinship and dignity shaped within a world still structured by racial and colonial inequality.
