Anita Inverarity
At School I took both O Grade and Higher Art which I passed both at Grade A. I was lucky enough to be taught by Sandy Petrie, Jim Scott and Eric Auld.
I attended Aberdeen College to study Graphic Design and achieved an HNC. My specialised subject was Children’s Illustration, which is still a big influence in my work today.
I had the most fantastically talented tutors- Jim Furneaux, Phil Thain and the late Donny Kelman (who first pointed out that I had developed my “own style” of intricate pen and ink work).
After college I worked as a T-shirt designer/screen printer before becoming self-employed, where I firstly had my own T-shirt Label “Cirrus Minor” which was influenced by Fantasy Art and Skate Culture.
After my son came along I ran my own business doing craft stalls and jewellery making for several years.
In 2000 I founded a Children’s Charity and now manage a successful Childcare Company. I enjoy using my skills running regular Competitions and Art Projects for the children.
I mainly work in Pen and Ink at the moment. I still do more traditional Landscapes and Flowers in Watercolour and Pastel on occasion and love exploring the countryside around Royal Deeside.
I have been with the Forecourt Art Group for over 20 years now and I am currently the Treasurer.
I launched 2 Online Galleries in 2008 and have had a fantastic response from the on-line artist community.
In 2008 and 2009 I won several competitions with Australian Site – Redbubble and had my work featured on a regular basis by forum Groups and Online Magazines.
