About Scott McClelland

 

I am a Maryland artist, using acrylics to capture a variety of subjects - landscapes, figurative and portraiture, plein air and studio works, and also humorous paintings. 

   

Because I am an avid outdoorsman, I love to depict the outdoor experience.  I am fascinated by the interplay between light and shadows, and how it creates depth.  I love the way lighting conditions change throught the day, throughout the seasons, and with different weather.   I like to get out there and engage with people, and to document their activities in my own style.  It helps that I'm still able to lug my french easel and supplies up some pretty steep and uneven rocky paths.

​

My work is often on exhibit at the Harford Artist's Association Gallery, and their satellite locations around Bel Air, MD.   

​

My work is also exhibited at the the Arts By The Bay gallery in Havre de Grace, MD.

​

I am also now showing my work at Side Street Framers and Gift Gallery at their Severna Park and Pasadena, MD locations. 

​

I was featured with a solo show at the Liriodendron Mansion in Bel Air, MD, during August of 2023.  (My work is on permanent display in their gallery showcase.)
I'm a member of the Maryland Portrait Painters and Maryland Plein Air Painters Associations.
I was the featured artist for the April/May 2021 issue of Harford's Heart Magazine.
I was juried into the 8th Annual Exhibition of the Oxford Arts Alliance (2022)
I was juried into the "From Mountain to Marina" show that was a cooperative undertaking of the Allegany Arts Alliance (in Cumberland, MD) and the MD Federation of the Arts (in Annapolis) in 2022.
