Renowned British portrait painter and author, Jeremy Sutton, has memorialized San Francisco's great Mayors combining the computer technology of the 21 st century with traditional art techniques. The innovative graphic masterworks are displayed in the Carol Channing Suite of Robert Pritikin's Chenery House Mansion, the future official Mayoral residence. The series on display portray the following Mayors:

       
       
Mayor ‘Sunny Jim' Rolph, Jr.   Mayor Joseph Alioto   Mayor Dianne Feinstein   Mayor Frank Jordan   Mayor Willie L. Brown, Jr.

 

Here's a picture of Jeremy with Angela Alioto under the portrait of her father, and the inscription (below) she wrote on the portrait.

 

 

 

 

Jeremy utilizes many media, traditional and contemporary, in his paintings, including oil, acrylic, digital paint, photography and collage. Jeremy explains: “I strive to portray the depth and breadth of subject's life, going beyond their appearance. I use whatever media and combination of media can help capture the inner spirit and character of a person. I see my canvas as a continually transforming liquid surface that I sculpt with color, tone and form. My goal is to create powerful art that moves the viewer, and that expresses my feelings about a subject. I am excited to share my new body of work which has taken me on a journey of discovery into the rich history of this wonderful city.”
