Scott Cameron "Shipping News" |
Scott Cameron
A Delaware artist, Scott Cameron paints the simple elegance of the America’s Cup races, serene coastal marsh scenes, and historic steamboats in a style reminiscent of the era in which they reigned. Scott is celebrating his 25th year as a maritime artist. He began painting in the late 1980’s with an emphasis on wetland vistas. Light, atmosphere, and a quiet majesty are hallmarks of his style.
An admirer of Andrew Wyeth and the Brandywine School of painters, Scott has combined the detail and quiet stillness of that School in his landscapes with the Luminist School’s sense of light glowing from within. Favorite painting locations are the waterways and coastal inlets of Martha’s Vineyard, Maryland’s Eastern Shore and the gentle rolling landscapes of rural Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland. Meticulous research is behind every historic steamboat and America’s Cup painting to record accurately the details of race position, rigging and boat design.
Scott Cameron attended Southhampton College on Long Island, studying with Fairfield Porter and Wilhelm KeKooning, followed by the Pratt Institute in New York. After college Scott worked as a graphic designer in Newport, R.I. designing and executing the graphics for three America’s Cup yachts. Introduced to this new exciting world of beautiful historical yachts, he determined to become a marine artist, combining his knowledge of graphic design and composition with his love of painting.
In 2007 Mystic Seaport Museum selected 5 of Scott Cameron’s paintings to be published as giclees for national distribution. Scott Cameron has exhibited his oil paintings in numerous national and regional shows from the Mystic Seaport Museum to solo and group shows in some of the foremost galleries throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states.
