Hilke
MacIntyre
was born in
Germany and grew up near Kiel. She studied at the
College of Art & Architecture in Kiel. In '96 she moved
to Scotland and concentrated on linocutting, painting
and ceramic. She now lives with her husband - also an
artist - and their 2 children near St Andrews.
She exhibits throughout Great Britain including
some solo shows and has been selected many times
for the Annual Show of the Royal Scottish
Academy. Amongst other commissions her work has
been chosen for illustrations of the East Neuk
Music Festival and the National Youth Choir of
Scotland.
"I prefer for my art a simplified
figurative
style with strong abstract pattern. Particular
influences are primitive art, the artists
of Europe in
the early 20th Century and contemporary design.
I enjoy the direct visual pleasure of composing
shapes, colours and patterns, looking for an
individual picture of the world I see around
me."
