About Paint the World a Beautiful Place

An exhibition of paintings by Sue Tait, a contemporary Scottish painter. She developed her love of colour in Botswana where she started a mud hut knitting business. She trained as a painter at Leith School of Art graduating in 2009.

In 2010 she was awarded the prestigious Anne Redpath prize for “A Posy” at the RSA Visual Arts Scotland Exhibition.

“In her vivacity, Sue Tait has discovered colour; a colour which does not simply decorate, amuse or scintillate but which somehow expresses the inner meaning of her subjects. They are a joyful splash of life seen through her intuitive and uninhibited expressiveness “ Paul Martín (1948-2022) tutor at Leith School of Art
