  About Kirsteen: I grew up visiting Scottish galleries with my artist dad and socialising with his circle from Glasgow School of Art (including famous Scottish artist Alastair Grey) this gave me a passion for Scottish art. As an adult I did a design degree at a Scottish University and spent and my adult life running workshops, tutoring, teaching, painting, drawing and helping others create art. I have traveled widely and often off the beaten track, connecting with people in the places I visit rather than just collecting landmarks and waiting in crowds. I want to bring that same local touch for people who visit my native Scotland.
