Leo du Feu C.V.

 

Education

 

BA Honours Drawing & Painting Degree from Edinburgh College of Art in 2006

 

Awards and Commissions

2008                       RSW Alexander Graham Munro Travel Award, for best artwork in show by an artist under 30

2006                       Nationwide Mercury Prize Art Competition short-list

 

My largest commission to date was for the UK Astronomy Technology Centre at the Royal Observatory Edinburgh where four 4-metre-high depictions of land, sky and space now hang dramatically in the entrance hall. My work was subsequently exhibited in London

 

In my most recent project I will work under the part-sponsorship of First Scotrail to produce a collection of paintings for display at the 150th Anniversary celebrations this August of the completion of the Aberdeen-Inverness rail line. This project is still at an early stage.
