About MeBorn in Kirkcaldy in 1930 Frances Walker studied at Edinburgh College of Art and then took up a post as visiting teacher of art for the Hebrides. This experience engendered in her a life-long love of wild and desolate places and since then she has chosen to depict the most remote landscapes, her compositions usually based on coastal reaches, craggy rocks and deserted beaches.
More About Me

As a founder of Peacock Printmakers, Frances Walker is passionate about printmaking. This lithograph was printed after drawing directly onto the stone, while the screen-printed colour was added afterwards.
