Of all the hopes that fall to man, there is not one I have not hoped. Of all the fears of fading light, there is not one I have not feared. But in regret I have found, that man grows to regret what regrets grow in him, not the act of life, but the failure to live it. And upon his death, in sound bedclothes he breathes in whispers: what if all my life, in all its pains, and hate, and ambitions, have only brought the throws of death, true death, to my door. What if in my brief spark, amongst the cave of darkness, I was the shadow cast by the candle on the wall, unknowing that a greater light could be?

Working between New York and Paris, Richard T Scott is known for his post-contemporary figurative paintings and his writing on aesthetic theory. Richard designs coins and medals for the U.S. mint. His work is part of collections worldwide such as the Georgia Museum of Art, the New Britain Museum of American Art, MEAM, the Museum of Contemporary Art Sicily, former British Arts Minister Alan Howarth of Newport, Prince Morad El Hattab, and Robert C. Kennedy Ph.D. and has exhibited at Le Grand Palais in Paris, Palazzo Cini in Venice, the Museum of New Art in Detroit. "Whether it is in his portraits, his compositions, or either still in his interiors, Richard T. Scott always tries to produce, on his spectators, a certain effect of strangeness, or at least, something like a feeling of longing. That's why, maybe, his compositions are populated for the greater part with mirrors in which appear, not simply beings just like those who face us - but of real spectres having the function to destabilize our glance while giving the fourth dimension for us to see" - by Frederic Charles Baitinger, Critic, Artension Join my mailing list!: http://tinyurl.com/cphhs7s
