Juror                            *Marcia Burtt,

 Marcia is one of SCAPE’s founding members. As part of our celebration of SCAPE’s twentieth Anniversary, we are honored to announce that Marcia will be the juror for our first exhibition of 2022

Marcia Burtt received a BA from UC Berkeley and an MA from University of Montana

After graduation she worked as a graphic designer, typesetter, and book designer, taking life drawing classes at SBCC a couple of afternoons a week

One afternoon the model didn’t show up, so she looked out the window and painted her first landscape.

She fell in love with standing at the easel outdoors, painting from observation in the real world. Working to preserve open spaces and celebrating wildness has been integral to her development as an artist and as a human being.
