Glasgow based artist, Fiona Watson, creates delicate prints of flora and fauna, birds and confectionary, pebbles and portraits full of colour and character. Born in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada, she moved to London as a child. Fiona trained as a biologist and worked as a medical journalist until 1996. Studying Biological Sciences at Leicester University taught her to focus and explore possibilities - gave her a view into an unseen world.

Glasgow School of Art - Fine Art Practice (MLitt)
Glasgow Print Studio First Floor Gallery
Exhibition Runs: 11th May - 23rd June 2013
Sumin Bak, Ary Cahyono, Omercan Cirit, Conor Cooke, Ruaridh Crighton, Mitra Forouther, Elisabeth Grant, Birthe Jorgensen, Mine Kavuncu, Jeemin Lee, Branko Lesjak, Si Ne Lee, Emil Lillo, Qiheng Liu, Sheena Mayer, Aoife McGarrigle, Steph Norwood, Joanna Peace, Marta Perovic, Iede Reckman, Michelle Semple, Suzanne Taylor, Christopher Thomas, Rongwei Zhan.
The recently established MLitt in Fine Art Practice at Glasgow School of Art is an intensive one year programme of postgraduate study in which students specialize in one of four pathways: painting; printmaking; sculpture; fine art photography. As the work on display in this exhibition suggests, this means that some of the artists embark on a focused exploration of their chosen medium, whereas others begin to challenge the very limitations conventionally associated with that medium.
