Kim Scott’s oil vignettes are inhabited by unlikely feminine protagonists who may be spying on you, or are they just caught like a deer in the headlights of some dreamy potentates gaze? They live in a land much as ours, located somewhere between vanity, impermanence and the sublime. Scott depicts figures and objects sourced from monster and Sci-fi movies, comics and books she read as a child, mythology, high gothic, surreal, Tibetan and Mexican painters, travel to exotic places, dreams and meditation, hallucinations brought on by illness, nightmares, chemical ingestion and the ragged and beautiful artifacts seen in museums. Scott finds images and ideas in scientific studies of the past and mixes in joy, humor and beauty with the horrible and mysterious, because that is her experience of life. Her paintings are self portraits.

Scott has created art nonstop from the time she was a child, watching TV sci-fi and playing dress up fantasies in thrift store evening gowns. In her 20s, she figured out how to get out of the country and answer the call to adventure. She has traveled to 22 countries and set up a studio in India for almost two years. Scott has studied with several Photo Realist artists in the 70's, Including Gary Pruner and Mel Ramos. Her work is included in many collections, including the Crocker Art Museum, The Burkhart Collection, the Judy Barnett collection and the Lisa Maclaine collection in New Zealand, The Center for Celular and Molecular Study in Hydrobad India, the Bud Cort collection, and many other private collections in the USA, England, Germany and India. Scott currently teaches art at the Short Center North, an arts centered day program for adults with developmental disabilities located in Sacramento California.
