ARTIST & GALLERY OWNER

​Ruth Farquhar

Hello, I'm Ruth Farquhar, welcome to my Gallery website.
I am an artist and the owner of The Blue Easel Gallery in Edinburgh.
This first picture above shows me at my desk, in my studio inside The Blue Easel Gallery. I can see out into my garden through the window behind me, it's also where my family delivers hot cups of tea to me when I'm working.  Sadly it doesn't normally look this tidy when I'm painting!
My Gallery and studio are situated in Cramond Village, a picturesque seaside location on the outskirts of Edinburgh. I'm lucky enough to work and live here with my family and until very recently, our wonderful Irish terrier Finn (aka Gallery dog).  I would be delighted to show you round the gallery and my studio, please pop in if you are in the area.
I am very proud of the gallery and my online shop, I'd love you to visit and have a look around. Hopefully you will see something to
fit perfectly into your own home or find a gift to make your family & friends happy.  
​Just click on the link
here or in the menu bar above to start shopping.
Please get in touch if you have any questions about my art, my painting process or the gallery in general, I'll be delighted to help.

If you add your name to my mailing list, at the bottom of this page,  I'll keep you updated with what I'm working on, future exhibitions and new paintings and products as they become available.
Keep scrolling down the page to see examples of my paintings, past exhibitions and archived work.


 Thank you
    Ruth

I always have a limited number of small original abstract paintings available, some recent examples of these are shown below.
Wild Swimming, A Day In My Garden, Beach Pottery and Love Heart series.
​These paintings are an important part of my studio practice and help me to explore new possibilities with colour, texture and composition.
My Time Together In The Garden Series (below left) has been added to the online shop recently.
​They make excellent gifts for friends and family but sell quickly so if you see one you like, buy it while you can.

MY LOCKDOWN SERIES OF WORK
I worked on this series of paintings during lockdown, there may still be a few available on the website online shop.
The inspiration for this body of work came from many long dog walks with my  family and our gallery dog, the flowers I discovered on these walks, my own garden and a collection of beautiful vintage tea cups that had belonged to my late
​Mother-In-Law.
You can see video examples of how these new paintings were created on my instagram page @farquhar.ruth
