About Dawn Spence
Dawn Spence is a Glasgow-based artist with a deep passion for abstract art. After earning an honours degree in Contemporary & Fine Art, she went on to study education and spent four years teaching Art, Design, and Photography in secondary schools. In August 2024, she answered the undeniable call to dive fully into her art practice. Recognised as an emerging talent, she received a Creative Scotland Grant in 2021, fuelling the development of her work. Her solo exhibitions, Flourish at the New Glasgow Society and Encounter at BOX Hub highlight her evolving style and unique perspective on her view of the world. She has also exhibited at several galleries across Scotland, including the Royal Scottish Academy, Lemond Gallery, and the Royal Glasgow Institute. Dawn’s work is guided by intuition—she paints with decisiveness, allowing ideas to unfold naturally. Often, the message reveals itself only after the painting takes shape, making this discovery a key part of her process. Since 2016, her fascination with water and movement has been a constant source of inspiration though her approach to capturing it has evolved in many ways. “Whatever I paint, I have the viewer in mind, aiming to transport them to a realm of wonder, beauty, and calm.”Other works from this artist
