Lennox, Scott
After traveling internationally as a child, Scott Lennox was raised and has spent most of his life in Texas. Following a career as a commercial photographer, he shifted to formal study of drawing and painting, where he says he is always looking for what lies beyond the obvious—for what is just below the surface. He has long been inspired by the Victorian poet, Gerard Manley Hopkins, who wrote of inscape, the quiet and gradual self-revealing of the inner nature of things. And like Hopkins, Lennox is drawn to the serenity of quiet places and natural settings.
As both painter and poet, Lennox strikes a natural balance between his writing and his visual art. He crafts poetry that is rich in visual imagery and creates landscapes in oil and in watercolor that are quietly, yet solidly poetic.
