About Jade Stout

Jade Stout is a Scottish landscape artist whose work explores horizon lines, coastal memory and the emotional pull of place. Born in Orkney, but living in Stenhousemuir, her practice is rooted in a deep connection to sky, sea and shifting light. Educated at Edinburgh College of Art, where she studied at both undergraduate and postgraduate level, Jade works across painting, printmaking and paper-based processes. Her approach is layered and intuitive, building surfaces through mark-making, texture and tonal shifts. Rather than aiming for literal representation, Jade’s work focuses on atmosphere: the feeling of standing in a landscape rather than just observing. Subtle colour palettes, softened edges and strong horizon lines create a sense of calm, depth and reflection.
