About Artist:
Nott was born in Missouri and grew up in the Black Hills of South Dakota. He studied at the Art Institute of Chicago, and was for a time associated with Roycroft in New York. He remained in San Diego after serving in the navy in the first world war around 1918. Thereafter he was devoting most of his time to his art, before moving finally to Los Angeles where he passed away in 1948. Nott is very well known for the quality of his almost velvety surface pastels particularly, though he did also work in oil. less
