NEWTON Mearns painter Frank To had a brush with royalty recently.
The Duke of Rothesay, Prince Charles, visited the artist and spent time discussing and admiring his work.
Frank told The Extra: "He's also a keen art lover and amateur artist. He took a great interest in my art and achievements- I've also been invited to this year's Royal Garden Party at Holyrood."
To has also just won an award with Deloitte and Touche LLP for outstanding achievement for an young upcoming Scottish artist and for his painting Yggdrasill which was exhibited in Dundee.
Rick Ballard, SSA committee member and partner at Deloitte in Scotland, said: "Deloitte is very pleased to award Frank the recognition he deserves for his artistic flair and talent. The Yggdrasill piece is very unusual and I look forward to seeing more of Frank's work in the future."
