Jack Vettriano was born on 17 November 1951 in Fife in rural Scotland., and on leaving school at 16 he started his working life as an apprentice mining engineer.
In his twenties he took up painting as a hobby, and many of his early works were copies of impressionist paintings.
He then moved on to painting people in settings that seem to be part of a story. He gradually perfected his technique and the big break through came at the back end of the eighties when he entered submitted two of his works for the Royal Scottish Academy annual show. These were both accepted and were sold on the first day.
Since then he has never looked back and is now one of the most commercially successful artists in the world, with a high portion of his income being derived from print royalties.
