Mark Roscoe

Born: 1974, Australia

Painter. Graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art with a BA (Hons) in Fine Art in 1998. He entered a self-portrait into the BP Portrait Awards during his final year, and his work ended up being used nationwide to advertise the competition, cementing a reputation as a portrait painter that has only grown ever since. He has completed portraits of numerous famous and respected figures - notably in 2007 he painted British television presenter Bill Oddie as part of the BBC series ‘Star Portraits’. His work has been exhibited widely and is held in prestigious collections across the UK and worldwide. In 2013 he won the Ondaatje Award for Most Distinguished Portrait of the Year for his painting of Olivia Roberts. Roscoe was elected a full member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters in 2016.
