Caz Scott

As a landscape artist, I believe that no place compares to that in which the world has come alive to you, where you know every rock, every path, and all images are held so clearly in your mind. Being based in Dorset has enabled me to experience this and focus on my passion for painting. I exhibit widely and my pictures are in collections around the world. I aim to depict my response and emotional connection to my surroundings through the images I create. I spend long periods walking and sketching along the Jurassic Coast. I am motivated by the dramatic landforms and wildness of the coast and countryside, often returning to familiar places as well as seeking new inspiration. For me, sketching a view has a for stronger impact than taking photographs. My sketches activate my memories – of the weather, colours, what iI was looking at and this leaves my imagination free when I come to compose and complete my paintings. I aim to simplify the complexity of the landscape, drawing out the image, building and balancing shape and colour to reflect the strength, uniqueness and beauty of the scenery. My original paintings are oils on canvas and come in various sizes. I also produce prints and greetings cards and I am happy to take commissions. All my work is available to purchase.
