Gregory J. Scott | #21 | painter/musician

Gregory Scott is an abstract expressionist painter and jazz pianist who considers the two art forms to be interchangeable. His paintings reflect the improvisational and exploratory nature of Jazz. He applies the universal concepts of line, color, shading, texture, space, and rhythm to his expressions. 
His paintings are the product of ideas, sketches, and observances that are set to canvas in their most basic form. The initial idea is then expanded upon, just as a Jazz artist builds upon an improvisation. He strives to communicate his experiences and interpretation of the world with a focus on its beauty.
He also challenges himself to achieve designs that represent his unique style. Greg's artistic influences include Miro, Picasso, Dali, Pollock, Cezanne, Van Gogh, and Gillespie. Greg's (early years) close proximity to New York City allowed for many opportunities to study these great artists first hand at many venues.
