Joan Eardley is famous for her work in Townhead in Glasgow and Catterline in Angus. Less well known, but nonetheless of significance is her connection to the Isle of Arran.
While on Arran, the Eardley stayed with a friend in a tiny vernacular building known as the ‘Tabernacle’, rented from a Mrs Kelso. Mrs Kelso’s relative lived next door, and ‘Wee Jeannie’, as she was known, swiftly became drawn into Eardley’s orbit, both as a friend and an artistic muse.
