Rita Greig was born in Norwich, Norfolk and trained as a designer in London, after which she taught art. Greig regularly exhibited at the Royal Academy, Galerie George, Patterson Fine Arts, London, Alpine Gallery, London and the Mall Galleries, London. Working mainly in oils, Greig's paintings are usually small in size, depicting landscapes, still life and interiors as well as figures at village fêtes and carnivals. Greig was an avid exhibitor, she was consequently awarded the Médaille D'argent at Paris Salon and remained a member of the Royal West of England Academy for most of her life. Examples of her paintings are in the collection of the Chase Manhattan Bank. She retired to South Devon with husband, and fellow artist Donald Greig, where she resided until she died in 2011.
