Bottles & Bartlett Pears


24" x 24" — Oil/Canvas — 2009
• SOLD

My good friend Karin Jurick emailed me and said she spotted this painting in the June 2009 issue of Southwest Art Magazine, promoting my upcoming two-man show with Manuel Nunes at the Elliott Fouts Gallery in Sacramento.

The article refers to me as Christopher Scott. Easy to do... Christopher Stott / Christopher Scott... see the difference? Even if you say it out loud you can barely hear the difference. It is a common error for the entire Stott clan. Everyone with my last name has a Stott/Scott mix-up to share. The upside is that it is easy to hide my identity should I ever need to. The downside is it makes it hard to Google me to find out more about my work.

Once I get my hands on an actual copy of the magazine I'll share it with you, along with many more paintings included in the show.

Story Time


16" x 24" — Oil/Canvas — 2009
• SOLD

This is another piece for my June show. It has pre-sold (along with 1:00, 2:00, 3:00) so I'm sharing them a little early.

Painting these books really lights my fire. I picked up the "It's Story Time" book at an antique shop near my house. Its red cover and the simplicity of the title really are a great contrast to the heavy, dark books.

This is one of the paintings for my upcoming show in Sacramento, California this June. Over the next few weeks I'll be sharing more completed pieces.

A friend gave me a small suitcase and some old clocks, to add to my collection. Over time I'll be continuing the series of clocks that I've been working on. It's more than obvious what the next in the series will have to be.
