Biography of Jack Vettriano

(November 17, 1951 -)

Born in Scottish in 1951, Vettriano left school at sixteen to become a mining engineer in the local coalfields. For his twenty-first birthday a girlfriend gave him a set of watercolor paints and, from then on, Vettriano Jack spent much of his spare time teaching himself to paint. The local art gallery, The Kirkcaldy Museum and Art Gallery, with its renowned collection of 19th and 20th century Scottish paintings, was particularly inspirational.

It was fourteen years before the artist felt ready to show any of his painting in public. In 1989 two Jack Vettriano paintings were offered to the Royal Scottish Academy’s annual exhibition; both were accepted and sold on the first day. The following year, an equally enthusiastic reaction greeted the three Vettriano paintings, which he entered for the prestigious Summer Exhibition at London’s Royal Academy.

In 1988, Vettriano submitted two works for the Royal Scottish Academy annual show. Jack paintings are reminiscent of the film noir genre, often with romantic or nude themes. he is thought to make more money from the sale of prints and reproductions.

In 1996, Sir Terence Conran commissioned Vettriano to create a series of paintings for his new Bluebird Club in London. The Bluebird paintings were put up for sale at Sotheby's on 30 August 2007 and made more than £1m. The most expensive Vettriano painting was Bluebird at Bonneville, bought for £468,000 at a Sotheby's auction. This artwork is considered the "most iconic" of the series.

In 2008 Jack Vettriano painted a portrait of Zara Phillips MBE, horse rider and granddaughter of Queen Elizabeth II . The Vettriano painting is entitled 'Olympia' and was auctioned later that year at a charity fund-raising auction.

In February 2011 it was announced that Jack Vettriano self-portrait, "The Weight" would be displayed at the re-opened Scottish National Portrait Gallery from November 2011.

In February 2012, the most famous painting, Singing Butler Vettriano went on display at the Aberdeen City Art Gallery as part of an exhibition entitled, From Van Gogh to Vettriano.

There have been sell-out solo exhibitions in Edinburgh, London, Hong Kong and Johannesburg. In November 1999, Jack Vettriano oil painting was shown for the first time in New York, when twenty paintings were displayed at The International 20th Century Art Fair at The Armory. Fifty collectors from the UK flew out for the opening night of the Fair and all twenty paintings were sold out within an hour of the opening. Jack Vettriano gallery shows Scottish oil painting, canvas, and more art like Jack Vettriano Butler, Mad Dogs, Dance Me To The End Of Love.

In March 2000 BBC Scottish produced a half-hour documentary about him for their Art Series EX-S; aired initially in Scotland only, the documentary is likely to be aired nationally later this year.

There aren’t a lot of living legends in art, but Jack Vettriano is alive and well as a Scottish painter that is a worldwide success. His most popular painting was the 1992 surprise ‘The Singing Butler’, an oil creation that went on to get sold for the highest price ever for a Scottish painting in 2004. The UK was buzzing with the popularity of this painting, and it is one of the most reproduced modern paintings of all time. So what makes ‘The Singing Butler’ so popular? Depending on the background of the person looking at it, there is a stir of emotions that can range from happiness to sadness. It’s a very uplifting Jack Vettriano oil painting, and in it a happy couple is dancing on the beach despite the fact that it is raining. The maid holds up an umbrella along with the butler, while this unforgettable scene takes place. Widely loved and equally criticized, this is very much the work that put Vettriano on everyone’s radar.

‘A Voyage of Discovery’ takes on a completely different tone, this time with a man and woman sitting down together. There is a bit of mystery involved as the man looks down at the woman’s leg while running his hand up her thighs in public. The lady looks away from the man so it isn’t quite clear whether she knows him, or if this is some stranger trying to seduce her. Much has been noted about the great characterization in this Jack Vettriano painting, and also the good design choices for both characters in the painting.

Not his most famous painting but one of the most talked about is ‘Round Midnight1’. It focuses on the backside of a woman in black lingerie and in the background there is a giant window with the silhouette of a man staring back at her. Like characters in most of Vettriano paintings, she is holding a cigarette, what many associate as a meaning for signs of power or dominance when it comes to people in his painting. It’s a very stylized look, and one that he has perfected over the course of his career.
