Hughie "Hui" Scott, Jr: Co-Founder and President/CEO
“I like to design and build. I hold these two things in equal regard- The Businessman and The Artist”.
ARTIST:
Hughie (HUI) Scott, Jr., Master Sculptor, Artist/Painter, Teacher – Teaching Sculpting For Youth Centers & Private Sculpting Sessions
For several decades, Hui has been guided by a singular purpose: to help others discover the profound joy and boundless passion that creativity brings. This mission has been the cornerstone of his life’s work, driven by a deep belief that creativity has the power to transform lives, spark innovation, and cultivate fulfillment.
From the wide-eyed curiosity of the youngest child to the awakening of artistic potential in adults rediscovering their creative voice, Hui’s journey has been about more than just teaching-it’s about igniting a spark. It’s about fostering innovation, nurturing creativity, and unlocking pathways to monetizing artistic talents. Whether through the first stroke of a paintbrush, the molding of clay, or the realization of a vision, Hui has seen creativity empower individuals, build confidence, and bring communities together.
This mission isn’t just about art; it’s about creating opportunities, opening doors to self-expression, and celebrating the beauty of human potential. It is a calling he carries with profound gratitude, knowing that every moment spent sharing this passion brings the world closer to one enriched by imagination, connection, and creativity.

A single glance at a Hui design reveals its unmistakable signature.
