Dundee.

Irene Furlong, wife of Mr John Furlong, manager of the Angus Hotel, Dundee, is a talented artist whose aim was to put some of her work up for exhibition. Already, however, she can claim to have had one picture “Hung” in her husband’s office!

Until just over 18 months ago Mrs Furlong had not had any formal training in painting, “I started it purely as a hobby, and then I happened to be introduced to an artist,” she said. Then she was persuaded to take lessons once a week at Jordanstone College of Art.
