Hi Subscriber,
Here is our newest art instructional video by master artist Scott
Burdick!
Scott 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.
