REVIEWS
The landscape paintings of Susan G. Scott come from exploring the stream that runs beside her woodland studio in Chelsea, Vermont. Each summer she sketches ankle-deep in water to convey the abstract privacy and intricacy of this natural space. In the winter months, she paints in her Montreal studio from these watercolor studies. Scott’s large, oil on canvas paintings, Streams of Light, resemble the delicate open aesthetic of Asian watercolors, allowing the white of the canvas to convey light and space, along with her rich shades of undulating color.
Susan G. Scott, RCA, is a Canadian-American artist known for contemporary figurative painting, elected to the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts (RCA) in 2013.
