Rest in Peace! John T. Scott ~ Artist

Sad news everyone! John T. Scott, the renowned artist, has died at 67. He passed away today. A native of New Orleans, his artwork was admired around the world. Mr. Scott was often quoted as saying he wanted "to move someone's spirit." The work definitely did so.

The New Orleans Museum of Art hosted a comprehensive exhibition of his beautiful work in 2005 ~ "Circle Dance : John T. Scott Retrospective." We were fortunate enough to see this exhibit in person on one of our trips to NOLA. It was unforgettable!

In recent years, he had two double lung transplants due to his fight with pulmonary fibrosis. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mr. Scott, his family & friends and all who love his art.
