Collection: Gillian Still : Sculptor : Llandeilo

Versatile artist, teacher and gallery owner, born in London, Gillian studied for four years at Farnham School of Art and Brighton College of Art, gaining her teaching certificate with distinction.

During training Still decided to change from painting to sculpture, enlarging her skills while teaching at Woking Grammar School by qualifying as a welder on Army courses, Aldershot. While lecturing at Harrow College of Art Still met the sculptor Philip Turner, learning from him to produce bronze cast sculpture. With others she developed clay modelling and ceramic skills, becoming a leading figurative porcelain sculptor.

She moved to Wales in 1965, further teaching including Hereford, Swansea and Carmarthen Colleges of Art and the University of Wales at Swansea and Aberystwyth.

In 1989 Gill Still opened the Fountain Fine Art gallery in Llandeilo, which became one of the very few fine art galleries which concentrated on exhibiting for sale painting and particularly sculpture on a domestic as opposed to corporate scale.
