Sutherland is a painter who makes vivacious studies of the
figure and landscape. Working in oils, acrylics and pastels
on paper and on canvas she reduces a scene down to its essence
and then records this with a bold use of colour and form.
Her
landscapes and cityscapes aim to evoke memories of real
places and with the figure she is interested in portraying
a particular mood through their stance or movement.
Liz
