Alexander Millar was born in 1960 into the small mining community of Springside a few miles outside the town of Kilmarnock on the west coast of Scotland. Life within the small Scottish village was very traditional and although Alexander Millar grew up in the 60’s era it felt more like the 40’s. His formative years were spent in the company of old men dressed in dark suits smoking woodbines partnered with large missile-shaped women decked out in headscarves and pinnies. His father worked for British Rail and Alexander Millar got great pleasure from simply sitting in the atmospheric steam filled stations which even today Alexander Millar find are the most romantic, nostalgic places to be. Many of His most romantic paintings are set within that very atmosphere – Alexander Millar guess I’m just a big old fashioned nostalgic romantic at heart! It therefore comes as no surprise to many that His favourite film is ‘The Quiet Man’. My websites: Top 10 Family Holiday Destinations in UK
