James Cowie (16 May 1886 – 18 April 1956) was a Scottish painter and teacher.
The quality of his portrait paintings and his strong linear style made him among the most individual Scottish painters of the 1920s and 1930s.
His work displayed meticulous draughtsmanship which was based on his studies of the Old Masters and his use of many preparatory drawings.
