About the Artist
A Brief History
Scott McDougall’s career spans an impressive four decades. Since beginning his career in Queensland, Scott has travelled extensively, capturing intimate moments across the globe.
His highly refined techniques allow Scott to not only capture a picture perfect scene but the mood and the people. He truly captures life as it is with his careful choice of subject matter. Viewing his paintings you can feel the streaming sunshine, see the cracks in the pavement and be surrounded by busy streets.
Scott is also an accomplished art teacher and has been a consultant for the Queensland State Education Department.
Over the years, Scott’s work has been widely exhibited across Australia and overseas.
