Scott Anstett: Artistic Process

This is a brief description of some parts of the production process involved in Scott's work. Subscribe to his weekly newsletter for more in-depth and detailed descriptions of his methodology.

A pure oil based process is used for both painting and cleanup. No solvents.

Different color palettes are used to invoke a specific ambience or mood.

Toned backgrounds are often used, with Sienna and violet being two favorites.

Starting from a light drawing, the paint is laid in quickly with focus on form.

A constant rotation is achieved between finished (top) and newly started work.

The stamping/signing process finishes the process and they're ready to frame.
