Scott Ackerman is a self-taught artist based in Margaretville, NY. He often works on found wood panels with acrylic, pencil and spray paint. Ackerman works from a place of intuition and immediacy. His subject matter - wolves, cats, snakes, and people are a reflection of his observations and feellings around planet, place and family. Titles, often point the way..'we're ok', 'it's all we need', 'a misunderstanding'. At its core, Scott's work touches our soul with his sensitiity to the world around him. He has a child like openess to observation and noticing, while holding onto the weight and complexity of our world. Margaretville, NY sits an hour west of Kingston in the Catskill Mountains. Scott lives with his wife and 2 kids and has converted the detached garage into his workshop and studio.
