Although she was born in Warwickshire, Perpetua Pope's parents came from Aberdeen and sent her back there to school. From there she went to Edinburgh College of Art, but she had only completed two years of her course when the war began. She enlisted in the WAAF on the day war was declared. She couldn't just sit around and paint while other people were fighting a war, she says. Like others in her year who joined up or were enlisted, notably Robin Philipson and Jack Firth, she returned to college to complete her course when hostilities ended. After college she taught at Moray House but, she says, she had always been a painter who taught, rather than a teacher who painted, and so, in 1972, she gave up teaching to paint full time. She hasn't looked back.
