Iris Scott

Iris Scott is an American fingerpaint artist. Yes! Fingerpainting! Though when you look at her wonderful creations, you'd have a hard time believing that she used only her fingers. In fact, Iris Scott is the first professional fingerpaint artist and she's very busy - in addition to her own work, she accepts commissions and has written a how-to book and has created an instructional video. Her original works are for sale, as are prints and her book and video. 

I first learned about Iris Scott when Tom Power interviewed her on CBC. Listen here.

Iris is particularly known for her paintings of animals and wildlife. Here's one of her shaking dog series that seems to catch a moment in time.

Wapiti

Prints can be purchased in multiple sizes. For example, this print of Wapiti, the smallest size, 16" x 40" would be US$47.40 and the largest, 46" x 35" is US$264. (stretched canvas on frames, ready-to-hang) 

It's very interesting to follow Iris Scott on Instagram (no account needed) and videos of her painting can be found on YouTube. I really think her paintings have a "Wow" factor!
