Description

Cordelia and her husband, George, were both artists and studied at GSA. Cordelia studied Drawing & Painting from 1939-45 and during that time she won the Guthrie portrait prize and continued, after graduation, to teach evening classes here.

She and George married in 1948; he was a photographer and travel writer. Cordelia developed her skills as an arts correspondent for a variety of publications, and they sometimes worked together covering major arts events. After George died in 1990 Cordelia continued to write and was still covering the arts in Artwork, Scotland's arts newspaper, up to the week before she died in 2009. This scholarship in George & Cordelia’s name was offered for the first time in 2012.
