Description

By Will Jarrett, Mission Local October 16, 2021 Jeremy Sutton is not your typical painter. His studio at 1890 Bryant St. brims with paintings and prints: musicians frozen in mid-performance, sweeping landscapes, and funky portraits of Einstein splashed in glossy color all compete for space. But take these creations at face value and you miss a big part of what makes them unique — because many hide a secret, second life. Point a smartphone camera at one of them (once you've installed a free app called Artivive) and it suddenly bursts into movement on the screen. Each brushstroke Sutton made in painting them is replayed, so the viewer can see the piece created from scratch. To read the full article, click here.
