Erraid was born in Perth, Scotland, 1997.

She spent her childhood growing up on the Black Isle and her adolescence in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Whilst living in Scotland with her studio in Edinburgh, Erraid also considers Australia home.

From 2016 to 2020, Erraid studied and graduated from Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design, specialising in Fine Art.

Erraid is a modern abstract expressionist artist. Her vivid landscapes do not copy Nature. Rather, they explore intense experience and dreaming through memory and imagination, creating form and a sense of place. Her paintings are at the intersection of landscape and dreamscape, inscape and escape.
​
She uses a wide range of materials such as acrylic, pastel, collage and oil. From her home in Edinburgh and in Perthshire, she draws inspiration from the countryside in Scotland and overseas. Folklore and Færie have always inspired her. She likes to enchant through the colours of her palette, textures and imagery.
