Artist Maureen Briggs has come full circle in a life as colourful as the pictures she paints.
Brought up in Castle Douglas, the Glasgow School of Art graduate looks nothing like her 72 years, through which she’s emigrated to New Zealand as a teenager, taught art and photography in one of Glasgow’s roughest schools and, sadly, lost the love of her life 17 months ago.
Richard Ross was also an accomplished artist when he walked into Maureen’s gallery in 1998 – and the couple never parted until his untimely death on December 28, 2020.
