A life as rich as his beloved paintings – Thomas McGoran has taken the UK by storm after opening his humble gallery space to the public and finding himself in the spotlight. Born in 1928, Thomas McGoran has spent a lifetime contributing to his beloved East End of Glasgow.
McGoran told the BBC about his time working on the railways and learning to paint much later in life. From lively chats about one room houses in the East End to life as a ‘spool-boy’ in the early days of cinema – Thomas and his work capture what it is to love Scotland’s largest city.
