This film segment also features each artist working in their element. Santa Fe artist and Action Painter Scott Christopher creates art at his Santa Fe, New Mexico studio. This film celebrates Action Painting, often called gestural abstraction, which is the practice of spontaneously dribbling, splashing, and smearing paint upon the surface with artistic intention. (Scott Christopher film on YouTube).
Scott Christopher is also associated with abstract expressionism and is described as an Outsider artist. Scott is a self-taught artist who became enamored with mark-making as a child thanks to his father, who had a careful eye for contemporary photography. Scott Christopher is also the author of the best-selling memoir Baseball Art & Dreams, available on Amazon.
