Iris Scott (born in Maple Valley, Washington, 1984) is an American contemporary visual artist based in Brooklyn, New York, best known for pioneering finger painting to achieve­­ media recognition and commercial success. Using "vibrant colors and vivid imagery"[1][better source needed] to represent a variety of natural-world subjects, Scott's art is said to express "remarkable movement, depth, and feeling".[2] Scott's work has been featured in Forbes,[3][better source needed] USA Today,[4] CBS New York,[5] and American Art Collector.[6][not in citation given]

Scott was raised by hippie parents in a farm environment in close contact with nature.[7] She graduated from the Washington State University in 2006 with a degree in art.[8] She later developed her finger painting style, which has been described by some critics as impressionistic and dream-like.[7][3]
