Beth, I think you copied the text wholesale from another website. I am not sure you can do this on Wikipedia, especially without referencing the source.

Also I do not think the tone of the copied article is very encyclopaedic in style.

I've tried to add some links etc. and put it in chronological order, but you have two different dates for his associateship of the Royal Academy (1890 and 1900). Also apparently he was not actually Laird until 1918.

Also it seems strange to read about a Scottish painter in American English (color, labor), but I suppose we have to put up with that.

I took out the reference to the GI (perhaps some sort of gallery) because I wanted to expand it but couldn't work out what it was. Rachel Pearce 10:52, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
