History
Elsie Felicia Rea was born in 1897 and attended The Glasgow School of Art between 1912 and 1915. During her time at the School, Rea resided at Cruachan, Scotsounhill. Given her young age, we may speculate that this address was her family home. Rea's education was sponsored by Govan Local Authority during her first year of studies.
Rea was enrolled as a Saturday student throughout her time at the School and is reported as studying Drawing and Painting for the academic year 1912 to 1913. James Gray was the chief instructor at this time. It is possible that Rea may have also studied Needlework and Embroidery, which was a major course offered on a Saturday during this period. If so, she likely studied under the tutelage of Miss Ann MacBeth, a formidable embroidery designer and published author of several needlework books. Please get in touch
