From There to Here by Mark Sutherland

Mark Sutherland is an Artist living and working in Folkestone, Kent. Born in 1966, he lived in South Africa until moving to England after his Graduate Exhibition at the end of 2005. Although becoming well known for his sculpture, he has been painting and drawing figures and portraits for the past 30 years. Since 1998 he has been exhibiting and selling predominantly nudes and portraiture done traditionally in oil, as well as sensitive and atmospheric drawings and paintings done in a wide variety of media. Mark treats each of his works as a voyage of discovery. He is not afraid to experiment with media and process, believing that this is vital for the continued development of any artist. As a result, each of his pieces embodies a unique combination of freshness with a professional execution. Click on the images to view larger versions.

Pixels and Paintstrokes by Dave Smith

‘I’m very much looking forward to the day when canvases come preloaded with imaging software. No cleaning of brushes laden with chemical pigment; no disposing of print cartridges; no excessive paper output – how green is that? In the meantime, as a habitual 'drawer', I’ll continue working in two contrasting media that work together to give me as broad and flexible canvas as I need to record my visual ideas and observations.' After 30-plus years in the ever-changing, technology-laden world of graphics, Dave returned to the world of fine art in 2006. This exhibition with its eclectic mix of figurative, abstract and classic themes brings together his freehand digital drawings and painted canvases for a first-time, out-of the-closet, airing.

Artist by Stan Rosenthal

".....and a little something else" by Tracey-Anne Pryke

Tracey-Anne has painted and sketched all her life. She produces a range of work in widely differing styles but all with the vibrancy that a mother of three young children can exhibit when she wins a “get out of jail free card” from her maternal responsibilities! Her thirst for colour, art and food lead her live in Spain for several years where she was able to indulge her desires not only to eat and drink but also to draw and paint. Now living locally her inspiration is not only the seascape and the countryside around her but her love of flowers and organic food which has lead her to capture images of these items in different media on paper, canvas and clothing.

Observations by Gordon Fowler

Born in Manchester, moved to Cornwall then lived in Canterbury city centre for 30 years. A well travelled eccentric who never followed a conventional career, a prolific painter, sculptor, writer and raconteur whose play "Fall in Corporal Moyes" was perfomed in covent Garden "He had about him the qualities of Whistler and would have enjoyed the company of Degas and the milieu of fin-de-siecle, Paris. Sickert and the painters of the Camden Town Group were also to his taste and often with wistful look and eloquent rhetoric, he would conjure up some scene or other where all these great names would be acting out their part."
