Dreamlike Nostalgic Art

Scott Moore's Oil Paintings Show Surreal Depictions of Life

— July 17, 2011 — Art & Design
If you ever felt like certain paintings reminded you of a dreamlike universe, then Scott Moore's oil paintings will certainly give you deja vu. These spectacular portraits showcase humans among unusual circumstances -- take people walking toy dogs, or life-sized popsicles, for example.

Scott Moore is an artist based out of Laguna Beach, California, where he creates oil paintings with a real retro feel. The faded nature of Scott Moore's oil paintings give them an aura of authenticity, which could easily help them blend into the beautiful paintings of the 1950s. The miniature worlds created by Moore are truly larger than life.

Implications - As a retro revival continues to be seen within fields such as fashion, art and photography, companies should be considerate of ways to give their products vintage flair. The use of fading and 1950s-style imagery by Scott Moore can be used as inspiration for companies looking to appeal to retro enthusiasts.
