The Sculptor- Scott Donahue   

Scott has been a professional sculptor since 1978, focusing primarily on public art.  There are examples of his work throughout the Bay Area in private collections and in the public field, including six larger-than life-size figures at the Millbrae Bart Station. 

 He has already completed an award-winning sculpture for the City of San Francisco entitled “Kate, Allan, Javier, Ting-Ting, Sloanie” located at the Taravel Police Station, 24th and Taravel Avenues.

 Scott has worked in several mediums and has developed unique structural and material approaches for particular commissions.  He is currently working with specialty concretes, ceramics, bronze, and 

has pioneered a process for creating high-strength, light-weight, integrally colored concretes.  For each of his projects, he develops solutions to ensure safety, and resistance to seismic forces.

 Scott graduated from UC Davis in 1982 with a masters degree in fine arts.  He studied in Cuernavaca, Mexico, and has been a visiting artist and lecturer in Sovona, Italy.  In addition, Scott has been a popular lecturer and art instructor in art classes at San Jose State, UC Davis, UC Berkeley and California College of the Arts, among others.
