Did someone say mission complete? Well almost anyways! Rockin the Guitarbige Show piece is pretty much complete. Goes by the name of “Smokin Guitar H2O”

"Green Gate" - functioning water fountain on Redwood chainsaw carving

This big boy was installed 26 Jan 2026, been a few years since I’ve seen or been around this piece. Originally built for my buddy Kenny his cannabis farm (replicate property/farm). This water fountain from time of build till now performs perfectly! No leaks a little squeak from the water wheel but that’s giving life and sound to this piece.

Presently showing at the “Art Center Space” located in old town Eureka 620 2nd street. Stop in and say hi to Monica and Liam and of course the hounds.

Guitar Parts give away!

Anyone interested in participating in the “Rockin the Guitarbige Show” - Aug/Sep Arts Alive 2026!

I will be giving out what I have left in stock for those interested. Please HMU and I’ll hook you up. Deadline ends Friday 30 Jan 2026

Gearing up for yet another draw fest, this time in a different part of the world. Start off in Prague, Czech Republic get my bearings of being back in Europe. Then game plan is onward to Munich & Berlin. Should be interesting to see this part of the world I have yet to see and draw.

Check back in near future trip will before end of this year. Burp.

"Sketch This" show up but not fully on run mode - Standby to Standby need some fine tuning

Show install has been completed, but I need to give it a bit of tweaking over the next couple of days. Call it the “Three Island Group” if you will. Toss in Vancouver Island, Hawaii islands of Oahu & Hawaii & Taiwan? What could go wrong? Nothing!

Story and a Sketch

Been a short New York minute since my last update. Story and a Sketch came out of nowhere like all good ideas do. How many times as an Artist have I been asked or any other artist for that matter. “Where did the idea come from”. In this case pretty simple, I take from my travel journals, sketches and put together this new fantastic idea! You as the great Art consumers you are like to take your info like your morning cup o joe. You take in what you read and like to look at cool drawings or stuff whatever it may be. So I have provided you a couple cool ways of you gathering all my stuff the way you like it. If you have the need for the Kinestetic, I have lots of sculpture too, but thats another story. These are my personal ones for you to enjoy.

Vietnam Adventure 2016

Just back from an amazing world travel to the country of Vietnam, first time ever, 30 days. Art goal set at a 15 minute sketch a day for everyday on the road. Met that goal one day prior, amazing what you can do when you set a goal and hold yourself accountable. Huge difference in what I saw in my work in just a few days, how much it changed, what your focus was. Sketch on friends, 15 minutes is such a small amount of time that you can capture in a heart beat. Sketches can be found under "Scott's Work" enjoy the ride.
