Libby Scott
After working for her family’s textile business Libby Scott initially studied Textile Design at Dundee College of Further Education. In 2001, she then graduated with Bachelor of Design with Honours, specialising in Ceramics, from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art, Dundee.
Since her studies she has had a diverse career including working within a busy Accident and Emergency department and latterly, for a number years, as an off-road driving instructor in various locations within the UK and Europe. For a few years she lived in Germany and has travelled extensively within Poland, Norway and Spain.
She is now a dedicated full-time artist, painting and drawing having regularly exhibiting throughout Scotland in a number of group and solo shows, as well as being represented by various galleries.
Exploring further the meaning of journeying, Libby can be frequently found hillwalking, climbing, cross country skiing and sea kayaking within Scotland, exploring the environment around her.
Libby lives and works from her home studio in Perthshire, where she is surrounded by wide vistas, deep open skies and panoramic views. She weather watches every morning by walking through the land accompanied by her border collie, observing, feeling the wind direction, noticing the changes of the season and maintaining her daily practice of elemental connection.
