Evelyn Pottie has always been in love with the countryside, developing her work from sketches drawn in the highlands of Scotland. She was educated in Edinburgh and Aberdeen and gained a DA in Drawing and Painting from Gray's School of Art, Aberdeen. After 22 years as a teacher, Evelyn decided to work full time as an artist and printmaker. Of her work, Evelyn has said "if it encourages its viewers to take a longer look at the landscape which we may be in danger of losing...a look at its colours, shapes and forms…a look at its every changing light and shade...a look at its history and its future, then I feel I will have achieved something".

NHS Fife recognises the importance that art plays in creating an environment conducive to good health and well being. Our collection of artwork is intended to be enjoyed by patients, their visitors and staff alike.
