Painting thousands of paintings, having public artworks involved in Hollywood productions, and being a frequent lecturer are just a few of the tools Sutherland has used over his three decades of being a Professional Artist in the Toronto area.
Being a prolific Artist is whats his creative practice has become. Kirk Sutherland doesn't know it any other way. It is a meditative state of flow. As an experienced Colourist and Abstract painter, that has for many years seen things differently with Synesthesia. Where he craves colours in the middle of the night because he tastes them with his mind. This isn't something strange, it is merely how he understands his world.
Join me as we do a deep dive on Kirk Sutherland's influences, how he understands his imagination, teaching, and his world around him. What professors influenced him while he was a student at OCAD during what he calls the golden age of learning.
