The Itinerary

Meet Artist Richard Scott at his studio

Travel to Melkbosstrand for a private visit to the working studio of renowned South African artist Richard Scott. Hosted personally by the artist, this intimate experience combines a guided studio visit with an inspiring and candid 45-minute talk and open Q&A. Richard shares the real journey behind building a full-time international art career since 2001 - exploring creativity, persistence, reinvention, success, failure, and the business realities of being a contemporary artist.

Internationally recognised, Scott has participated in 109 exhibitions worldwide, including 29 solo shows, with work shown across South Africa, Europe, the UK, and the United States. The session is energetic, practical, and deeply authentic, offering rare behind-the-scenes insight into both the creative and commercial worlds of art
