Learn to Paint and Draw Gorgeous Outdoor Scenes with Scott Burdick and
Susan Lyons!
Scott Burdick was born in Chicago, where his mother and father early on
encouraged his interest in Art. "I spent a lot of time in hospitals as
a child and remember my mother showing me how to transform simple
shapes like circles, triangles, and squares into objects like planes,
helicopters, and fish. It seemed such a magical thing and made spending
so much time in casts and on crutches much more bearable."
In high school, Scott began taking life-drawing classes at the American
Academy of Art under the legendary Bill Parks. "Though I'd always loved
drawing, it was Mr. Parks who filled me with the enthusiasm and
discipline necessary to improve my skills. His love of painting and
creative expression infected us all." After finishing the Academy,
Scott continued his study at the Palette and Chisel Art club, where he
met his wife, painter Susan Lyon. "It's a wonderful thing being able to
paint together all the time and grow as artists together," Scott says.
His ideas for paintings come from everywhere. "What makes a subject
attractive to me are the same things that attract us all. The beauty of
a young girl, the character of a weathered face, the solitude of a farm
at sunset, or even the story itself behind someone or something that
makes it interesting." Scott believes it is the job of the artist to
recognize this when it happens, analyze why, and use his technical
skills to convey the feeling to someone else. He notes that some
paintings are as simple as stopping at the sight of something
interesting, while others may take more time to research than to
actually paint.
Susan Lyon studied art at the American Academy of Art in Chicago and
was an active participant in Chicago's Palette and Chisel Club. It is
there she first began exhibiting and selling her work; at twenty-three
she was the youngest winner of the prestigious Gold Medal which she won
two consecutive years in the annual Oil Painting show plus a third
place in the Silver Medal show. Medal Watercolor show. She entered the
Oil Painters of America show once and got 7th place. In 1998 and 2000
she won an artist choice award in the Northwest Rendezvous Show.
Susan draws inspiration from painters of the Guilded age such as Anders
Zorn, Joaquin Sorolla and John Singer Sargent. She also is passionate
about artists like Philip Malavin from Russia and contemporary masters
Richard Schmid and Nancy Guzik. Lyon's technique is to paint wet on wet
to start and then wet on dry for her finishing touches. "My style is
realistic with as much impressionistic color as possible. I like to
combine wide brushes for sweeping strokes in the background with small,
soft brushes for subtle details in my center of interest."
