~ Scott W. Prior ~
“Painting St. Mary's Garden View was a bit of a task. Mostly due to the size of it, 24x36. I hadn't really painted that big on location in a show/competition like the LPAPA Invitational, but the view demanded a bigger size I thought. So I was up for the challenge, it took me four sessions of painting to finish it, fortunately the weather worked in my favor. Finding this spot was a blessing, I was
out scouting for views above downtown Laguna the week before the show started and stumbled upon it at the church. It was such a quiet peaceful spot had to paint there and the church let me park there with no hassles.” Scott is an award winning oil painter and Southern California native who has exhibited nationally throughout his career. He has a BFA from The Academy of Art University in San Francisco and is a Signaute Member of LPAPA and the Calfornia Art Club. Scott draws inspriation from the beauty in ordinary, everyday scenes.
