Mother–Son Art Show: At the Moment
Anne Sutherland & Seth Butler
This colorful show features recent landscapes and still life subjects, each infused with bold color, movement and vision of place—offering a compelling contrast between mother and son’s artistic approaches.
Anne Sutherland is a self-taught painter known for her rich use of color, layered textures, and spontaneous, intuitive mark-making. Her work often incorporates varied materials and surfaces, creating dynamic, expressive compositions. Anne uses still life and landscape references modifying compositions and color to a new point of view. In this exhibit, she will present original oil paintings, multi-media pieces using oil paint over the giclée and giclées —large-format reproductions color-matched to original small works.
Before relocating to Greenwich, Sutherland lived year-round on Nantucket Island. She was an active figure in the island’s arts community; taught painting and drawing to hundreds of students and held numerous solo exhibitions on the island at East End Gallery, South Wharf Gallery and Old Spouter Gallery. She received the continues to show work at Nantucket Looms and Grey Lady Gallery. Locally, Anne Sutherland’s paintings are available at Laffer Gallery in Schuylerville, with giclée limited editions available at Front Street Home in Ballston Spa and Silverwood Gallery in Saratoga.
Seth Butler, a recent MFA graduate from the University at Albany, explores imaginative, unconventional landscapes in what curator Dan Cameron dubbed “turbo-charged” paintings. Camero has organized a second pop-up show of Butler’s work at Varosy Studios July 17-19, 2026. Seth’s style weaves bold pattern, vibrant color, and surreal elements—blue tree trunks, dreamlike paths, and skies that shift time and tone—into scenes that invite reflection, bend perception and offer discovery.
Butler’s work was displayed at Albany Public Library in 2025, presented in collaboration with Opalka Gallery at Russell Sage College. He was featured on WMHT’s A-HA: A House for Arts and had exhibitions recently at Saratoga Arts Center and Lake George Arts Project. He is represented by Nikitin Gallery in Brooklyn, NY.
