Michael Scott the painter
I guess I’ve lived my life like an all you can eat buffet. I’ve tried as much as I could stand. I’ve been many different things but through it all I have made my living as an artist. It is the common thread form my early years, sketching with my mother in Cuba, to the present day sixty-one years later. If you would like to view what those years were like I invite you to look my portfolio over and visit michaelscottstories.wordpress.com.

Mike… I am not sure if you are the artist, but I found a drawing of a basketball player with the ball as his head, a cowboy hat, badge and a holster with six shooters at his waist. The name Mike Scott— something, was at the bottom… and the letters after Scott were cut off. So, I looked you up. It is is, I was wondering about permission to use it.

Mark…After 56 years in this buisness and at least half of them working at newspapers and ad agencies I’ve got to say that the drawing you describe does not ring a bell. That does not mean I didn’t do it. If you could give me more info as to where it was printed and what it appeared in it might help. If I didn’t do it and you use it you would be in violation of someones copyright and liable to end up in court. If it’s something I own you’re welcome to it but if it’s something I did for an agency or a newspaper I don’t own it, they do.
That surly twisted you head around. Hope I’m not too late getting back to you, I’ve been in Mexico.

I have two Impresto paintings signed off M Scott at the bottom right hand side. I was wondering if this was you? One is called Impresto Spring and is a 24×36″ canvass and Impresto Landscape and is 10×8″ canvass. They were bought in Merthyr Tydfil, South Wales on November 1998. The smaller one is a landscape of a river with a small waterfall and a tall mountain behind with trees either side. Can you help?

I’m sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you. I am on a sailboat in Baja California in route to the east coast of the United States and my internet is limited. I have never painted anything impresto that I can recall. The majority of my work is over 4×4 and I just sign “Scott” so size and signature would rule out the possibility of them being my work. There is another Michael Scott that is known for his landscapes and roosters that I believe is from the midwestern US. He is the only other that I am aware of so good luck with your hunt. The main thing is to enjoy them. Michael Scott

One more artist you may want to check on is a scot who pasted away in 06 I believe. Very good, very well known. This is his site, http://michaelscottartist.co.uk/
If this is the same artist, your paintings may be very nice to have.

Please forgive me if I don’t know quite how to answer that.

Hi Micheal
I have just come back down to my too normal daily routine which age 88 seems to require.
I was away up in the peaks, glimpsing rare perspectives of the grandeur of beauty which surrounds us mortals on our planet.
I was exploring your galaxy of paintings on internet
. What a glorious treat.!
My early childhood included a Montague Dawson in my bedroom. I was fortunate to spend all my school holidays by the sea..
Your genius surpasses Dawson. As far as I am aware he never painted portraits. With such sensitivity and poignancy you paint a dazzling young boy´s face, and again a young lady,,possibly demurely covering her mouth with her hand.
Thank you for suchspecial moments

Thank you Andy for taking the time to visit my work. Your high praise, comparing me to Dawson, I am not sure I deserve….but, I’ll take it just the same. Thank you.

Hi Mike, It has been a long time since we built boats on the outer banks. I located a sharpie from the old class and would like to know if you have any info, drawings, blueprints, etc. to finish building the old boat? This is Ian, if you remember. Please respond at [email protected]. thank you
February 1, 2012 at 11:42 pm |
Wow, it has been a long time. I still have a lot of drawings and offsets from the old boat but, there is one problem, at the moment, I’m sailing my boat from Baja down to the Panama Canal and up to Belize then on to Florida. All my sharpie stuff is in Florida. I’ll email you.

Hi, Very cool cruise you have going on. Keep in touch, I may catch you along the way. I am restoring an Albin trawler now and plan to take her down to Florida to sell. I may at that point jump on a plane and head down to Panama, I usually go there at least once or twice a year. I hope to have the trawler mostly finished to a point to head south in the next few weeks. Keep me posted on your travels. You can directly email me at [email protected] Have fun. Regards…………..Ian

Dear Mr m Scott my grandfather had recently given my family a beautiful 3D painting. Some of the main features are trees,mountains and a river or a stream. It also includes a white painted name in the corner…m. scott. I was curious to know who this painting belongs to. Do you recall a painting like this and if you do can you please put a value on it. Thank you

Jhun Flores…… I have 2 of Mr. Scott’s original paintings (approximately 14”x16”), framed and signed. I bought these about 30 yrs. ago. We are moving, scaling down in house size and these paintings are not going to move with us. If you’d like more information on these paintings, please contact me.

Hi Mike,
Just womdering,

Hi Mike,
Just wondering,
Did you paint “Grey Butcher Bird, signed M Scott 1987?
February 16, 2025 at 5:26 pm |
Sorry no. I don’t sign my work that way.
August 20, 2022 at 8:35 pm |
Hi M Scott. I believe I have one of your paintings. It is a little white church next to a creek or small river. The leaves on the trees are a heavy burgundy and fall colors. I’ve checked the other M. Scott and this work is not him. Is this yours by chance? I would love to know. I look forward to hearing back from you.
February 16, 2025 at 5:23 pm |
If you can send an image to [email protected] I can let you know if it’s mine and something about it. I did a church years ago.

Hello, Mr. Scott. I have a few of your paintings in my home I purchased when I was 28. I am now 54 years old. They are I. Good condition still. However, I am curious on how to condition and clean them. I love them soo much.
Thank you,

What is the subject matter of the paintings? If they are by me, I paint in acrylic so cleaning lightly with soap and water will be fine.

Hello! I hope all is well! I am not sure if you were the creator of the paintings I recall my grandmother having but your signature looks familiar. I used to love looking at these two paintings my grandma had hanging up as a kid, and I would love to find them again. She passed a few years ago and all her things were sold by her eldest daughter so I never saw them again. They were two canvas paintings that went together as a set and they were of trees and the woods, they had 3D like features on the closest trees and I remember there being pinks and purples on the barks and ground.
February 16, 2025 at 5:16 pm |
Ashley, I’m sorry to respond so late, the short excuse is I’ve been away. I’ve done a few paintings that were sets of two’s and three’s but, sorry these weren’t mine. Good luck tracking them down.

Mr. Scott, we have 2 of your amazing landscape paintings and it seems that your paintings may have a hidden face. I just wanted to check to see if by some chance you hid these faces or is it just a coincidence in the way it was painted?

Hello Mr. Scott, my name is JP and I am a musician based out of Syracuse NY. I believe that I may have found and now own one of your paintings. It is a beautiful piece that has a small house with a chimney on it in the very middle, with 3 visible mountain peeks in the background, a tree with orange leaves on the left most foreground, and a stream running through the middle of it. It’s initialed “M. Scott” in red paint on the bottom right with the M in cursive. Long story short, I was wondering if I may use it as an album cover for a project I am working on. I am an independent musician with no label or anything but I do post my songs on Spotify and all those types of sites/apps. I do it purely for fun and enjoyment. I just thought I would reach out and ask you because A. I love the painting, B. I think it fits the feeling of the songs that would be on said album, and C. As a fellow artist I thought it right to ask for permission out of respect. Which ever answer I get be that yes or no, I still appreciate your time and your gift of bringing beauty into an already beautiful world! Thank you!

Hi John, I’m sorry to say its not one of mine. I’ve never signed my work that way. A word of caution, since the work isn’t mine I cant give you reproduction rights but, somewhere out there is the original artist that would be within their rights to sue for as much as $300,000. As soon as you finish a painting you automatically own the copywrite and some artist take that seriously. Check out my web page for my latest works to see if anything suites your needs. I grant a one time use at no charge.

Hello! I have a beautiful grey and white large canvas with what appears to be your signature. Trees with mountain in background, small waterfall in center. Could this be yours?
