Si Scott

Si Scott is a really orginal artist, his work is really detailed and unique. He specializes in typography , but this is not the only thing he does. He also does very detailed work he uses pictures of ordinary things and changes them into something different. For example he turned scissors into an insect and the most suprising thing is that the details he adds make the scissors hard to notice at the first look at the picture. 

Typography- is the art and technique of arranging type in order to make language visible. The arrangement of type involves the selection of typefaces, Font/point size, line lenght, leading , adjusting the spaces between groups of latters.

Drawing classes in the Lycée by an artist, Antonio Roda, His parents had no inclination to art, though they did have on display in their home Picasso's Greedy Child. In Washington, he attended drawing classes given there by artists, then in 1959 attended Fordham University in New York for English Literature and History , he also started to create his own work.In the summer of 1961 he studied art at the Académie de la Grande Chaumière in Paris, and in the fall began a painting course at Yale College.

His work is different , he uses ordinary objects and changes the scales of the objects, makes them smaller than they will usually look or even bigger thats why i think his work is extraordinary. He's work is also done in the cartoon style, the artist uses flat colour without any shading. His work is simple but still really interesting.
