Artist Profile
Maureen K. Scott was a many time award winner of Manhattan Arts International magazine’s Cover Art Competition. She was chosen to be featured in the prestigious 73rd National Sculpture Society exhibition in New York, NY. She also received the John Cavanaugh Memorial Award for Figurative Sculpture, at the North American Sculpture Show.
Scott studied sculpture at the University of Denver and the Art Institute in Chicago, and furthered her master carving skills in Pietrasanta, Italy. Working primarily in terracotta and bronze the artist used the figure as the theme for her work, evoking beautiful shapes of the human figure. She painted each piece, embracing the challenge of making each piece unique and one-of-a-kind. Her most recent works were imbued by whimsy, insight, and versatility -- all of which clearly reflect the great depth of the artist.
Her work has been featured in Sculpture Forum Magazine, Coast Magazine, The Canyon Courier Newspaper, and The Denver Post. She has been highly praised for having a skillful proficiency and for achieving harmony and balance in her work.

Praise for Maureen K. Scott
“Maureen K. Scott’s female figures in bronze and terracotta combine an
elegance and sophistication in form with an endearing quality of familiarity. Her
subjects are comfortable in their own skin… in their unabashed natural poses, relaxing, stretching, reclining or reflecting. Scott combines a mastery of her medium with an inimitable perspective about her subject’s character and personality. Her supple and richly tactile forms reveal the elements of harmony and balance – the universal anima released from solid matter.”
Renée Phillips, Director, Manhattan Arts International
