Vassanta – Portrait of a Muse Slide Show

Posted on December 20, 2011 by eric scott

Vassanta Portrait of a Muse

I’m in the process of creating little slideshows set to music for major genres that I work in, models that I work regularly with, or major series of works.  Some of you may have seen this slideshow on Facebook when Vassanta posted it, but wanted to ensure it was shared broadly with those who admire this talented lady.  We have collaborated togther for over 4 years.  I created this slideshow of portraits that we have done over the years to celebrate our collaborations -from our very first shoot and ending with our most recent work featuring her son, Basil.  Enjoy and celebrate the beauty and talent of Vasssanta with me.  Happy Holidays!!

Vassanta: The Magic Continues

Posted on September 25, 2011 by eric scott

It’s been a while since I posted a new art nude blog.  My work has mostly been focused on fashion and vintage looks the last several months. On a recent visit my by long time artistic partner, Vassanta, we beautifully picked up where we left off the last time I saw her 9 months ago before she gave birth to her son in December. She is looking fabulous and here’s a sampling from our shoot.  For a story on the shoot and more images, go to the my blog at:

Chantal: Cliffdale Ruins

Posted on June 30, 2011 by eric scott

Here are a few images from  a series I did with the model Chantal in the Ruins of Cliffdale in the Palisades, NJ.  This was an estate built in 1911 and torn down in the 1930′s to incorporate  the land into the Palisades Parkland.  However, the remains are fairly substantial – two stories of massive stonework that was the basement and garage all overgrown with vegetation.

Beauty is not Random

Posted on April 17, 2011 by eric scott

But these images are.  It’s been a while since I have had time to edit and post anything from all the shoots I’ve been doing last year and so far this year.  I had a breather, so I did a quick edit of various recent shoots. Here’s some fine art images and to see the rest, go to

Zinn: Le Guignol

Posted on February 6, 2011 by eric scott

This is part of a series of shots I did last year using Venetian Masks.  Zinn Star’s poses using minstrel show-like hand gestures as well as the tension in her body and facial expressions behind the mask really made these special. For the rest of the shots and story, go to:

Paradise Lost: Mission Beach and Yasi

Posted on February 3, 2011 by eric scott

Mission Beach for ZoeFest 8  was such a visual paradise as well as filled with some wonderful Ozzie folks. The initial pictures after getting a direct hit from Cyclone Yasi look  like the area is devastated.  The main (and only) coastal road is blocked by downed trees and washed away in places near the shore.  I have also read that the lush jungle forest surrounding the town is completely denuded and there are worries that the forest animals may not have enough to eat.  This includes the magnificent ostrich-like bird the Cassowary that the coast is famous for.  I’m sure the area will recover and it will be a paradise once more, but it will take many years – particularly the more natural areas. So until then, here are some images shot in the jungles near Mission Beach to keep the memory alive and honor those who live there.
