Scott Grimando is a
multi-media artist blurring the lines between Fine
Art & Illustration.
As a teenager he studied under
Harold Stevenson, one of the few protégés of Norman
Rockwell. Later he studied under the aviation and
futurist painter Attila Hejja and fine
artist/illustrator John Monteleone. Today he is a
widely collected mystical realists painter as well
as a renowned digital illustrator.
His imagery has graced the
covers of hundreds of books and magazines, blazing a
path of innovation in the publishing industry over
the past fifteen years. He’s done so by finding a
balance between his classical training and digital
techniques to create a bold statement in subtle
details.
He’s been featured in numerous
collections of the best in contemporary Fantasy Art
Including Spectrum, Infected By Art, Expose, Painter
and The World of Faerie.
Significant exhibits include,
Illuxcon, The Art of the Imagination at the
Williamsburg Art and Historical Museum with HG Giger,
Society of Illustrators, with Donato Giancola, &
collector’s showcases with Boris Vallejo, Julie Bell
and Michael Whelan.
His first book, The Art of the
Mythical Woman, Lucid Dreams, has become an art
students standard for insights into the modern
creative process as well as being a richly
illustrated retrospective on the artists career.
Scott’s work tells a story on
a deep emotional level sparking something deep and
reverberating. It grabs the viewer forcing them to
think about the meaning of the image.
