Craigie Aitchison
The painter Craigie Aitchison was born in Scotland. He came to London intending to study law, but
went to art school instead. There he found the traditional drawing classes difficult, but still kept on painting.
In his late twenties he was given money by the Italian government to study art, and became interested
in early Italian artists, which shows in some of his work. He loved the greens and browns of the Italian fields
and the clear light there, and wanted to put this light into his paintings.
This led him to paint colours thinly one on top of another from light to dark, but he insists he's never
sure what the results will be. He says, ‘It’s a secret - because I don't know myself. I don’t start by painting
15. What can the reader learn about Aitchison from the text?
A. He works in a different way from other artists.
B. He often gets bored with his paintings.
C. He improved his drawing by going to art school.
D. He did some paintings for the Italian government.
