More about Scott  

Scott had, in the early days of his artistic development, experimented extensively with the mediums of finger paint and wax crayon. Within a short time he felt he had pushed the medium as far as he could. There was a growing buzz in some circles about the nuances of lead pencil. He had moved on to create some of his best work for the period, and gain the respect of his contemporaries with his inspired "Ernie and Bert" series. 

Scott had started drawing caricatures in about the sixth grade, influenced mostly by the art in the magazines "Mad" and "Cracked". It began as an obsession with being able to copy the drawings line for line. As his confidence grew, his newfound skills were unleashed on classmates, teachers, and family members. 

At about the age of 17, Scott had realized that he had been floundering his way through life, not really setting any goals, and hopping impulsively from one thing to the next. 

At that point he made a firm decision. He would hop from one thing to the next and flounder indecisively with a passion never before seen. He would study with intensity, the pure essence of mediocrity, and bring it to a state of perfection. This newfound desire spilled into all aspects of his life, including the art of caricature.

He studied painting at Carnegie Mellon university and found out what it means to be a "serious" artist.

After all that business, he kept on making art and amusing his buddies with quick renditions of their likenesses.
