Scot Briscoe Artwork

Scot Briscoe Artwork I am a creative, trying to find time to paint and draw within the crevices of any spare time.

This is me, in the raw, starting with imperfect and trying to find my own voice through artistic expression.

“In a slip of fallen sky, the iris speaks in gold and indigo”

Oil, cold wax, and Japanese chiyogami paper collage on gold foil. 8 × 10 inches.

A single iris, built entirely from pattern and paper — deep indigo chiyogami petals against a luminous gold foil ground, torn edges honored and visible. Small enough to hold in your hands. Too beautiful to look away from.

Title is after a poem by Madison Julius Cawein.

Making progress on this large (50x50 inches) canvas. This is a little peak into how all that texture and layering starts - this is maybe 1/2 way through the ongoing artistic conversation I am having with this work.
I start with a drawing, then a color wash and then gluing the Japanese (or other) papers on in key places. And finally I start painting and blending with oil and cold wax.
The piece will change and shift through out the whole process as decisions are made, second guessed and changed as I continue to evaluate the piece as a whole…
Stay tuned to see where this conversation ends.

Excited to have some of my work displayed in one of my favourite furniture shops, in the Magnolia village. We visited every time we are in Magnolia. Now I have another reason to go look at the treasures in the shop.
Stop by and say hi to Rob and Deb. Then see if you can spot the artwork.

Work in progress.
Large 50x50 inch piece. Cherry blossoms in spring from our huge front yard tree.
I am interests in continuing to explore scaling up my art and the texture and use of Japanese chiyogami paper collage.
I have needs to change my strategy to account for the difference in scale from my smaller pieces.
I purchased some rolled canvas from and got a canvas stretcher bar frame from .
Excited to take this on.

“Salt and light on a summer breeze — waves carrying the gull’s laughter”

Oil, cold wax, and Japanese chiyogami paper collage on cradled board. 14 × 24 inches.

Three gulls over a Pacific Northwest shore, caught mid-flight in a summer wind. The waves below are calligraphic and patterned — sea rendered using the language of Japanese textile memory, chiyogami fragments surfacing within the wings. Pattern and feather, wave and sky, all speaking the same language.


This is a summer painting. Salt in the air, warmth on your face, the sound of wings and water doing exactly what they were made to do.

Inspired by “Free,” Neurolyrical Cafe, July 2024.

“Draped in crimson, the story unfolds in her petals”
Oil, cold wax, and Japanese chiyogami paper collage on canvas. 36 × 36 inches.
Japanese crab apple blossoms in deep crimson-magenta, close-cropped and commanding against a luminous gold ground. A dark branch cuts diagonally through the composition, chiyogami fragments breathing through the leaves beneath layers of paint. One bloom enters the frame still arriving — not yet fully here.
Two mythologies meet in these petals without competing. Celtic tradition reads the crab apple as love and union. Eastern aesthetics see elegance and beauty. This painting holds both — fierce and tender, decorated and deeply true.
Title Inspired by the poetry of Shakira Nandini.

Sketches from our trip to Cannon Beach. Oregon.
It was so nice to have a Adirondack on the porch to sit in and quietly sketch - no tv or work to distract me.
What a joyful and restful time. Our dog misses the wide sandy beaches. So do I a bit…

“Before the petal falls, it was luminous — and that was enough”
Oil, cold wax, gold leaf, and Japanese chiyogami paper collage on board. 8 × 8 inches.
A single magnolia blossom against a gold leaf ground — blush petals carrying chiyogami pattern within them, seigaiha scales visible through translucent layers of paint. Pattern becomes petal. Gold becomes light.
A quiet meditation on seasons, on the brief and perfect moment before turning. This is a painting about joy that knows what it costs, and opens anyway.
