About the artist: Scott Beaty served in the U.S. Navy from 1978 – 2001, spending his last day in uniform at his retirement ceremony on 9/11. Scott currently lives in Arnold, Missouri, a suburb of St. Louis, and received his Master of Fine Arts degree (Sculpture) under the VA’s Vocational Rehabilitation Program.
