Scott Kirkwood
Scott Kirkwood was born in Adelaide in 1960, joined the Australian Army in 1978 and served in infantry and armoured roles before transferring his commission to the British Army as a Royal Artillery officer in 1995. Since then he has worked as a forward air controller, military planner, linguist and cultural advisor, deploying on operations in Bosnia, Kosovo, Iraq, Afghanistan and the Somali Basin. Scott sketches and paints from a unique perspective, providing an authentic view of conflict in the course of conducting his service duties. His artwork focuses on human portraiture within the military context, presented in pencil or watercolour. He uses a glazing technique to achieve depth and strong atmosphere, applying a soldier's attention to detail for realistic depiction of operational scenarios. Cranston Fine Arts have a superb sleection of images by Scott, many of which are close to selling out. |
