He started to draw during the 1930s and soon developed a very unique style of pen and ink drawing of dream-like creatures such as swans, birds, fish, trees and flowers. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn 1944 he returned to Britain settling in London.  His work was exhibited in London and in Paris, and examples of his work are in the National Gallery of Scotland, the Tate Gallery and the Metropolitan Museum, New York.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\" align=\"center\"\u003eIn the early 1960s, Royal Worcester commissioned Wilson to design a tableware pattern.  It was produced in two different colours, black printed onto terracotta and grey and black printed onto white glazed earthenware.  The ‘Scottie Wilson’ pattern was based on the totem poles of the North American indigenous people that the artist had studied during his visits to Canada. The pattern was unfortunately not a success in Britain probably being too expensive for its target audience. It was much admired in design circles.  Production finished by 1965 and pieces are now getting very collectable.  \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iconic Edinburgh","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39614207852608,"sku":"18\/1\/2024","price":25.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/1902\/6240\/files\/1960s-royal-worcester-scottie-wilson-small-shallow-bowl-5-3-4-inches-british-ceramics-614.webp?v=1794227765","url":"https:\/\/www.iconicedinburgh.co.uk\/products\/1960s-scottie-wilson-single-shallow-bowl-royal-worcester","provider":"Iconic Edinburgh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
