Thomas (Mac) MacGregor
Thomas MacGregor graduated with a degree in Drawing and Painting from Edinburgh College of Art in 1999.  After graduating he worked as an in-house Artist for ‘The Stand Comedy Club’ which resulted in a large number of comedians’ portraits as well as the omnipresent ‘Stand cowboy’ which can be seen on nearly every other Lothian Bus. To support his studio work whilst in Edinburgh MacGregor took a part-time post at HMP Edinburgh as an art teacher. The prison environment helped to feed some of the social realism within Macgregor’s figurative style. During his years as a working artist it Edinburgh, MacGregor headed up an artist run collective. Although Drawing and Painting have always remained his main focus he has employed many other media including sculpture, ceramics, screen and intaglio printing, photography and new digital medias. In 2007 MacGregor moved to Bolivia as an artist resident with ‘Sustainable Bolivia’. In Bolivia he had three solo exhibitions in Santa Cruz and Cochabamba. He has exhibited widely across Britain, the Balkans and Bolivia. Born in Sidcup MacGregor has spent most of his life in his ancestral homeland of Scotland although now lives in Leyton and has set up studio in Bethnal Green, London.
