About the Artist

SYLVIA QUINN HOME is an Artist /Designer who has lived and worked in the Scottish Borders for over 25 years.

She was brought up on the idyllic Isle of Anglesey in North Wales and moved south to attend Bournemouth College of Art after leaving school. She went on to study Interior Design at the London College of Furniture and worked as a designer and space planner for DEGW ARCHITECTS in London before moving to Scotland to become a full time mother in 1982.

It wasn't until the early 1990's that Sylvia began to develop her drawing and painting skills, going on to exhibit in the various Scottish Border galleries including the 'FLAT CAT' gallery in Lauder. She also works as a community artist, runs workshops and teaches Leisure Painting and Life Drawing at the BORDERS COLLEGE in Duns, Berwickshire.
