Drysdale A H Scott is a figurative artist who lives and works in
Bearsden, in the north of Glasgow.
Scott is a painter who specialises in figure compositions portraits
and still life. He creates narrative images that are based on modern
day themes and events. Like many of the artists who have had an
influence on his work, he has a great interest in “capturing
a moment in time”. Composition, realism and strong draughtsmanship
are of equal importance to him as is the narrative involved in creating
his work. His main influences are – Velazquez, Titian, La
Tour, Caravaggio, Hopper, Bacon and Freud.
Since graduating from Glasgow School of Art in 1987, Scott has
taught Art and Design in several secondary schools in the Glasgow
and North Lanarkshire areas. He has also lectured in continuing
education programmes at Clydebank College, Ayr College and at Glasgow
School of Art.
