AWARDS JUROR
Scott Anstett
Scott is a local artist living and working in Edmonds, Washington. He has a wide interest in subjects and creates portraits, figurative works, landscapes, still life paintings, and the occasional abstract. He received his formal arts training at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia in the early 2000’s. His figurative works are influenced by such artists as Mark Tennant and Malcolm Liepke and strives to capture unscripted, spontaneous moments in life.
Scott debuted on the art scene here in the PNW with his large-scale oil-portraits at various galleries, salons, cafe’s and other venues in the Seattle area. He and his wife moved from Seattle to Shanghai in 2015, where he began working smaller in scale and experimenting with different substrates, color palettes, and ground colors. After four years in China, Scott and his wife moved to Cape Town, South Africa where the natural beauty heightened Scott’s interest in landscape painting and expanded his use of color.
Scott attempts to reflect the experiences of his travels in all of his art creation, and to convey a joyful and optimistic outlook that mirrors his personal philosophy and deep interest in this world we live in.
