About Jamie O'Dea

  • Biography

    Jamie O’Dea was born in Glasgow in 1962 and studied at Glasgow School of Art between 1986 and 1989. He has been painting full time since 1994 and has exhibited widely throughout the UK and internationally. His work is predominantly figurative, characterised by bold colour, dynamic compositions, and lively figures filled with movement and expression.

    O’Dea’s vivid palette and dramatic, stylised forms show an affinity with the Scottish Colourists, particularly JD Fergusson and Margaret Morris, whose influence can be seen in the rhythm, energy, and chromatic intensity of his paintings.
