  • Artist: Kenneth Scott, Jr.

Kenneth Scott Jr., a neo-pop artist, was born and raised in the Ninth ward of New Orleans. At a young age, Scott’s talents as a visual artist were discovered. He is a product of the talented visual arts program of the New Orleans public school system. As a high school freshman , Scott became an apprentice of artist Richard Thomas, who introduced him to Pieces of Power, an inner-city youth art assemblage established in 1991. After becoming a member of P.O.P. Scott began to participate in art shows and various mural developmental teams in and around the city of New Orleans. P.O.P. also encouraged members’ development of entrepreneurial and interpersonal development skills.

After receiving his Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting and drawing, Scott became a full-time visual artist. He has been featured in numerous galleries, museums, and publications. Scott was featured as the official artist of the 2012 Old Algiers RiverFest Poster and the 2011 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival Congo Square Poster.
