Scott McGee

MAY UNDERGROUND SOUND COVER ARTIST

Pacific Northwest artist Scott McGee creates striking, expressive artwork exploring the human form through bold lines, dramatic contrasts, and captivating compositions. His work ranges from intricate black-and-white illustrations and vibrant, colorful portraits to one-of-a-kind wearable art, including garments embellished with his hand-drawn designs.

With an artistic approach that moves fluidly between mediums, Scott values the creative process as much as the finished piece, embracing experimentation, discovery, and the evolution of his craft. The result is a distinctive body of work that is both visually compelling and deeply expressive.

“CONNECTED”

A chance encounter at our April Underground Sound Mixer sparked an instant creative connection. After discovering Scott McGee’s sensational artwork—and the hand-drawn designs he creates on clothing—we knew we’d found our next cover artist!

Scott went on to create this striking, futuristic illustration for our May 2026 issue, marking the beginning of a wonderful creative relationship and another reminder of what happens when local artists and community come together.
