Briana Corr Scott est une artiste et auteure qui mêle peinture, illustration et écriture. Son travail explore en profondeur la beauté du monde naturel, se concentrant sur les détails minuscules et négligés du littoral de la Nouvelle-Écosse. Scott travaille principalement à l'huile et à la gouache, son art et ses histoires s'inspirant de l'observation directe de la nature et de ses expériences personnelles. Suite à une résidence déterminante en Irlande, elle a commencé à fusionner avec jeu ses peintures à l'huile, ses illustrations et ses poèmes pour créer de magiques animations en stop-motion. Sa littérature jeunesse intègre souvent des séries de poupées en papier aux côtés de récits et de poèmes inspirés par ses promenades dans la nature.
