Islay-born artist Heather Dewar has had a love of portrait drawing from a young age and relishes the challenge of capturing someone's likeness. In this programme, Heather travels to Inveraray to meet Ethel MacCallum. Although Ethel's adult life has been spent on the mainland, she is extremely proud of her island connections. Sent from a Glasgow orphanage to the Isle of Tiree at the age of six, her early childhood had been unsettling, but Tiree, and music, transformed her life. Today she is a well-known and respected singer-songwriter.
