I make intuitive abstract paintings. I look to evoke a spatiality in each one and to be surprised by what I find.
I was born in Leigh-on-Sea, Essex and grew up in Bristol. My father was the artist and sculptor Gerald Scott. My developing passions and interests led me to attend art school where I initially studied for a degree in sculpture followed a little later by a Masters in painting. Alongside my continuing creative practice, I followed a career teaching at various art schools in the UK. Most recently I designed and led the Fine Art degree programme at Bristol School of Art and the new Integrated Foundation Programme in Art, Media and Design at Bristol UWE.
I left teaching in 2021 to concentrate more fully on my own painting, working from my studio on top of the house that I share with my wife and where we brought up our family.
