About the Artist:
Scott Zoelick: Blending his love of the outdoors, with an eye for detail and an artistic style that captures every nuance of a nature scene, Scott has discovered a way to preserve the magic and emotion of a fleeting moment in his wildlife paintings. His education included studying illustration, painting and print making at the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design after three years of studying at the University of Wisconsin--Stevens Point, College of Natural Resources. Scott's paintings have been featured on the cover of more than 25 major magazines. He has designed conservation stamps for the National Wildlife Federation and has donated his art to dozens of organizations dedicated to conservation and the preservation of wildlife. Beginner's Luck was commissioned by the Fresh Water Hall of Fame located in Hayward, Wisconsin. The original painting is still displayed there.
