高其佩，生于清顺治十七年（1660），卒于雍正十二年（1734），一作（1672－1734），享年75岁。字韦之，亦书韦三，号且园，或书且道人，又号南村，铁岭（今属辽宁）人。工诗。他年轻时，学习传统绘画，山水、人物受吴伟的影响，中年以后，开始用指头绘画，所画花木、鸟兽、鱼、龙和人物，无不简恬生动。意趣昂然。还著有《且园诗钞》。

据《铁岭县志》记载，他是名宦后裔，为清汉军镶白旗轻骑都尉高天爵的第五子，后因其兄高其位有军功，雍正皇帝特嘉改汉军镶黄旗。高其佩八岁学画，遇稿辄模，积十余年，盈二簏。随叔父高承爵游宦广东，时广东官衙内有西席吴韦，能以指作画，高其佩受其影响较深。十七岁时丧父，由叔辈高承爵诸人抚养，未应科举，由祖荫在康熙三十三年（1694年），出任姚州牧，次年转任虞部郎。康熙四十年，（1701年）受宿州知县，两年后，内迁工部员外郎。康熙四十五年（1706年）外放分巡浙江温处道，随后，他在署年轻运使任中，因亏欠盐课丢官。康熙五十四年（1715年），高其佩重踏仕途，出任四川分巡川南水宁道达六年之久，直到康熙五十九年（1720年），升任四川按察使，在成都任职。雍正元年（1723）内迁光禄侍郎，九月升刑部右侍郎。第二年升正红旗汉军都统，仍领刑部右侍郎之衔。雍正五年（1727）七月，因于刑部右侍郎任内定谳中有失，惨遭革职，从此脱离仕途，时年六十七岁。他虽久居他乡，身游宦海，但不忘故乡，在画上常题有：“铁岭高其佩指画”、“铁岭高七郎”、“铁岭古狂”，因此时人对其有“高铁岭”之称。

高其佩晚年，指画声誉远播朝鲜，但他依然绘画“甲残至吮血，日匿频烧烛”。雍正八年(1730)，应诏圆明园如意馆作画3年，创作了《长江万里图》等细绢工笔画。高秉《指头画说》记载，高其佩曾为兵部尚书卢舜徒写真，画一立像，高与真人相齐。画成后，卢舜徒欢喜若狂道：“神乎技矣！进乎道矣！”

高其佩“扬州八怪”罗聘之师。其艺术才华出众，能诗、工画，他在细绢上所描绘的亭台楼阁、人物、花鸟、鱼虫等等，笔墨精细，设色艳丽，精妙绝伦。他在临摹了大量的前代名人作品，打下了深厚的根基之后，开创了一条新路。大胆地创造出了别具情趣的“舍笔而求之于手”的表现技法。秀水张浦山著的《国朝画征录》中记载：“高且园善指画，画人、山水花鸟、鱼虫、鸟兽，天资超迈，情奇逸趣，信手而得，四方重之”。高其佩指画有“叱石成羊”之妙，他创作山水、人物、花鸟、走兽时，均信手一挥而就，“倾刻数十幅，……无不绝人。”他一生的作画数量是惊人的。正如他侄孙高秉在《指头画说》一文中所述：“自弱冠至七旬，不下五、六万幅”。可惜其大部分早已失传。保存下来的多藏于各地博物馆，铁岭县文化馆过去曾存有春、夏、秋、冬四幅《竹》。上海出版社出版的《高其佩》（杨仁恺著）一书，对他的生活和创作道路做了详细的论述，指出他的最大贡献是：“标题材之新，立结构之异，对当时和后来绘画艺术都有一定影响。”

工诗，著有《且园诗钞》。
