Vettriano, Jack Biography

(1953-)

Born in Scotland in 1953 to Italian parents, Jack Vettriano began his career as a mining engineer in the Scottish coalfields, painting only in his spare time. In 1988, Vettriano gave up his job as a mining engineer in order to paint full-time. Vettriano has enjoyed great success in spite of his lack of formal training. His career has flourished, with exhibitions in Edinburgh, London, Johannesburg and Hong Kong. Vettriano's paintings hint at stories of seduction and betrayal in a style that has been compared to some of the great realist painters of America and England.
