Scott found his passion to draw at an early age and has continued with his creative talent throughout his life. After graduating in Graphic Design & Illustration from Building & Printing College in Glasgow, he started work 20 years ago as an illustrator and now works as a 3D modeller using computer graphics.

Although he enjoys his work, his dream has always been to one day become a full time artist.

Peace and Quiet
by Scott McGregor

Scott was born in 1965 and brought up in Largs, a small seaside town on the West Coast of Scotland.

In his spare time Scott has painted for over 20 years and has mastered a style of painting which is realistic and sometimes merging into impressionism depending on the subject matter. With the use of vibrant colours on his palette he applies the paint using a palette knife to get roughened texture of a landscape, or a brush when painting figures for a more subtle and detailed approach.

When painting his Wave series, he wanted to capture movement and a feeling of noise with some of them, while the others express peace and quietness, creating a calm painting. Being brought up on the coast helped to inspire these paintings of waves, Scott loves the way the sea changes with the light, creating different moods and atmosphere which he hopes is portrayed in his work.
