FIELD NOTES

MAY 2020

Andrew Sutherland embraces the role of the explorer, presenting a captivating collection of drawings, paintings, and prints that reflect his imaginative adventures. Drawn to the faded color palettes of old books and early photographs, Sutherland brings this passion to life through new techniques, including impasto oil paintings on primed paper and his first-ever risographs—a form of digital printing using color separations.

Field Notes offers a nostalgic yet dynamic portrait of the adventurer-explorer of the past. Influenced by his experiences with books, films, and documentaries, Sutherland plays with various surfaces and marks, blending prints, oil paints, acrylics, and drawings. The result is an immersive journey through fantastical landscapes that invite viewers to lose themselves in a world of wonder and discovery.
