Scott Yeskel is a Los Angeles based Fine Artist who specializes in moody, atmospheric and familiar feeling landscapes of Southern California. His deep colors and iconic imagery bear the weight of a time gone by, loaded with romanticism and nostalgia. His paintings of classic restaurants, reflective trailers and tall palms tell the story of each and every Angelino- a journey of strong emotions told subtly through light and form. Scott currently teaches an Abstract Workshop at the Kline Academy in West LA and resides with his wife and daughter in the San Fernando Valley.
