Particularly charming is the small black dog standing among the handlers near the centre of the composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Dundee, McVeigh studied Drawing and Painting at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art before settling in Edinburgh.

McVeigh presents the pub session not simply as entertainment, but as a place of companionship, memory and temporary rejuvenation.
