ABOUT THE ARTIST
JEFF SCOTT
Jewell, Iowa
Jeff was born and raised in Iowa, before serving two tours in Iraq as Military Police (MP) with the 10th Mountain Division. In 2011, he was medically discharged from the military. Through the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) and art therapy, he’s managing his PTSD, anxiety, and depression as well as physical pain — art is helping him heal and enjoy life once again.
“Art is the most therapeutic thing I’ve found to express my thoughts and feelings. I’d be lost if not for art. WWP is an amazing organization and they’ve given me hope. The people in my Peer Support Group are a blessing in my life. They’re people that understand what I’m going through and don’t judge. They listen and give advice, and they’ve allowed me to do things that I would not have been able to do without them.”
