Following a lecturship in ceramics at the Glasgow School of Art (1973 - 86) Douglas Davies has worked as a full-time potter and painter and now as a full time painter with studio and gallery. In November of 2000 he was elected an RSW (Royal Scottish Society of Painters in Watercolours). In 2006 he was elected professional member of VAS(Visual Arts Scotland).

The local landscape is a constant inspiration as are frequent visits to the Brittany coast.

All work is on paper in acrylic, ink and pencil using the shapes, colour and line almost to abstraction.

Situated in the beautiful conservation village of Skirling near Biggar, the Gallery is housed within a former coaching inn, part of an 18th Century Farmhouse which forms home and studio.
