Born in Glasgow in 1879, William Carrick was a landscape and coastal painter, working in oils and watercolours. After serving an apprenticeship as an architect, he practisied this profession for several years in Glasgow until ill health forced him to turn to painting. He lived in Lanarkshire and Lancashire and in the Morayshire fishing village of Findhorn in 1937, before retiring to Ardgowan, Kingussie, Inverness-shire. He exhibited 10 works at the Royal Scottish Academy, 13 at the Royal Scottish Society of Watercolour Artists, 89 at the Glasgow Institute of the Fine Arts and others elsewhere.
