Twin Cities media dig the bridge project!
Click on each for a story link: Minnesota Public Radio, Minneapolis StarTribune, KSTP Live, WCCO News, MinneapolisSt.Paul Magazine (at left), and Southwest & Downtown Journals all highlighted Scott's series of paintings of the construction of the new I-35W bridge. The paintings are on display through August 29 at the Thrivent Financial Art Gallery, 625 4th Ave. S., 2nd floor, Minneapolis. Hours: M-F, 7a.m. to 5p.m. (and other times by appointment). Thanks to all who came to the opening reception on August 1. . . and apologies to those who came and found that the front door was locked!! Thrivent security evidently didn't "get the memo" until about 6:30 that night that the door was to remain open. Please let us know if you'd like to meet Scott at the gallery for a personal tour of the show.
Scott's painting, Waterslide, won third place honors at the Laguna Plein Air Painters Association's 4th Annual "Best of Plein Air" show. The event was juried by artist Gil Dellinger. The director of the Irvine Museum, Jean Stern, judged the awards. Scott's painting, Karaoke, was also included in the event.
