- Description: Elizabeth Blackadder is perhaps best known for her detailed yet lyrical watercolours of flowers, "table-top" compositions using Oriental objects, and her beloved cats. 'The implied space of abstract painting, without conventional pictorial structure, allowed her, using an almost empty canvas or sheet of paper, to assemble a variety of objects in a free and seemingly random association. These representational elements provide a schema, but the painting is a poem built around them with its own internal logic'. (Duncan MacMillan in Scottish Art 1460-1990, p394).
