About Malcolm Butts

  • Biography from McTear's

    Born in Heighington, Lincolnshire and educated there. His first teaching appointment was to the staff of Leicester College of Art. For a number of years he taught at The Glasgow School of Art. Malcolm lived in the West of Scotland, traveled widely and devoted his time fully to painting Scottish landscape.

    There is a precision and careful attention to detail that characterized his work in acrylic and oil colors. The appeal of his realistic approach resulted in a number of commissions; including a series of distillery scenes for the Board Room of a Highland Distillery company.

    His paintings have been published in a series of limited edition prints and his original work is in private collections throughout Europe and USA. His naval warfare painting "Sheffield Class Destroyer on South Atlantic Patrol" is held by Kelvingrove Art Gallery, Glasgow.
