Timeline
Dempster was elected as an Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy in 1960. She regularly exhibited her work at the Academy's annual Exhibition of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. The first piece she exhibited was St Bridget in 1935. In 1946, her piece Mors Janua vitae won an award from the RSA for which she received a prize of £50.
Dempster designed and carved the first and fifth monoliths of the Royal Scots Monument in Princes Street Gardens in Edinburgh. The monument was unveiled on 26 July 1952.
In the early 1950s, Dempster was commissioned to design and carve the roundels that sit above seven figures carved by Hew Lorimer, on the facade of the National Library of Scotland building.
Her first commission was Seahorse for the Clyde Navigation Trust which was shown at the 1938 Empire Exhibition at Bellahouston Park.
Dempster studied sculpture at Edinburgh College of Art (1930). Her tutors included the sculptors Alexander Carrick and Norman John Forrest, and she studied alongside the sculptors Hew Lorimer, Thomas W. Whalen and Scott Sutherland. Dempster also trained further in London at Regent Street Polytechnic and at Munich Academy in Germany.
In the late 1930s, Dempster was commissioned to produce three large carvings in oak, two of angels and one of the biblical figure Jubal, for the new organ case at St Giles' Cathedral. Her work on the pieces was in danger of being delayed because she had been called up for service as a Red Cross nurse at the outbreak of World War II, however, given the public importance of the work, the Red Cross released her from her duties so that she might complete it.
Elizabeth Strachan Dempster, ARSA, (23 April 1909 - 17 January 1987) was a Scottish sculptor.
Dempster was born on 23 April 1909 in Greenock, Scotland to Elizabeth Watt and Duncan Dempster, a sugar refiner. She was orphaned at an early age. After her parents' deaths, she moved to Edinburgh to be with her guardian, Dr Charles Warr, minister at St Giles' Cathedral, Edinburgh and Honorary Chaplain to the King George VI and later the Queen Elizabeth II.
