Life[edit]

She was born on 2 February 1877 in Skelmorlie in Ayrshire. Her father was Dr. William Wylie (11 November 1845 - 8 December 1885). Her mother was Mary Jane Scott (12 December 1850 - 24 April 1921). They married on 26 July 1870 in Greenock. Kate was one of their 6 children.

She went to the Glasgow School of Art.[3]

She often painted in Arran; while there she stayed in a cottage at Blackwaterfoot.[4]

Death[edit]

She died on 16 April 1941 in a Glasgow nursing home. The funeral was on 18 April 1941.[6]

From The Scotsman of 19 April 1941:[7]

SCOTTISH WOMAN ARTIST'S DEATH. The death has occurred in a Glasgow nursing home of Miss Kate Wylie, an artist who was specially noted for her flower pictures, although her work also embraced a considerable variety of subjects. Miss Wylie was the youngest daughter of the late Dr. Wylie of Skelmorlie. From her early years she showed a marked aptitude for painting, and she studied with distinction at the Glasgow School of Art. Many of her pictures, executed with skill and charm, were shown at exhibitions both in this country and abroad.

In the same year she died the James McClure and Sons Galleries held an exhibition of her paintings in October 1941.[8]

After she died the Glasgow Society of Lady Artists held an exhibition of her work in February 1942, along with that of Janet M. Aitken and Elma Story who also recently died.[9][10]

Works[edit]

Some of her work is held by Glasgow museums.[11]

Much of it relates to flowers.[12]
