George Muir grew up in Wanlockhead, a small village in the Lowther Hills of Dumfries and Galloway in the south west of Scotland. She studied for a degree in Interior Design at Edinburgh College of Art and then went on to train as an art therapist.

Taking inspiration from her home and the Scottish coastline George Muir produces paintings full of life and carefully observed, or remembered detail. George Muir's early childhood in Wanlockhead had a lasting influence on her and has provided a huge source of inspiration for her modern art. George describes some of her memories:

'I remember there being a very strong sense of community there, small as it was. Due to its location it was at times very exposed to and at the mercy of wild winters and there were power cuts and times of isolation, when the roads were closed, to me this meant many things including adventure and isolation...and a particular importance, investment and identity surrounding the home....I can remember the magic and wonder of playing at my Gran's house.....climbing up the ladder to the attic, playing with her numerous boxes of trinkets that she loved to hoard....these memories are very special to me'.
