Brooklyn artist Iris Scott creates detailed works of art using an elementary technique: finger painting.

Scott’s finger paintings, which range from portrait’s of pets to landscapes, are created in a process she describes as bridging the gap between sculpture and painting.

“It’s sort of like Play-Doh; I grab [the paint] and sculpt it on,” she said. “There is nothing in between the canvas and me. There is no paintbrush.”
