The Madison Artists Guild & Gallery presents Scenes from the USA & Europe, a special exhibition featuring the work of Atlanta artist Jim Sutherland, MD, on view from August 28 through October 3, 2026.

The exhibition opens with a free public reception on Friday, August 28, from 6 to 8 p.m. Guests can enjoy an evening of original artwork, food catered by Taco on Main, and live music by MaCayla Hodges. The reception is free and open to the public.

An avid traveler, Sutherland draws inspiration from the landscapes, cities, and people he encounters throughout the United States and Europe. Working primarily in acrylic on canvas, along with oils and watercolors, he creates paintings that capture the light, atmosphere, and character of the places he visits.

Sutherland lives in Atlanta with his wife, Mary, and has balanced a distinguished career as a pediatric cardiologist with his longtime passion for painting. His work reflects his love of travel and his desire to capture scenes and people that resonate with him in an artistic and meaningful way.

Influenced by the spirit of the Impressionists, Sutherland’s paintings celebrate color, light, and a strong sense of place, inviting viewers to experience both familiar and distant destinations through his perspective.

The special exhibition is generously sponsored by REU Architects and made possible through the support of Jim and Mary Sutherland.
