Moving to Aberdeen when appointed as a lecturer in drawing and painting at Gray's school of art in 1958, Frances Walker took early retirement in 1985 in order to devote more time to her painting and printmaking. She divided that time between her home and studio in Aberdeen and the island of Tiree, where one of the few remaining thatched houses is her alternative home. She has also travelled further afield - finding inspiration and source material for her work often from the wildest and most desolate landscape - of Iceland, Greenland, Svalbard and most recently Antarctica.
