Jacob Sutton, oil on canvas, ‘Wick Court Farm’, signed inscribed and dated 2010 verso, 71.5 x 59cm unframed.
We were very lucky to find 2 of Jacob Sutton’s glorious hens in a very poor house clearance type sale, His Wick Court Farm works sell through Saatchi Art and at the Belgravia Gallery, Cranleigh, Surrey for several thousand pounds.  This biography is from their website: https://belgraviagallery.com/?s=sutton   He is also represented by various other galleries and what looks like a rogues gallery of his political portraits and others from his travels can also be found online.  
 Jacob Sutton, son of acclaimed artist Philip John Sutton, has enjoyed a long and well-travelled career, pairing photojournalism for titles such as Time magazine, with painting.
Originally drawing portraits in London and Parisian cafés, sailing boats in Poole and sketches of his time in Afghanistan, Sutton moved on to a long-term project of depicting life on Welsh farms. Sutton’s humorous, lively, colourful and inquisitive paintings of farm animals such as sheep, dairy cows, geese and chickens are acutely observed. He has even been known to paint his linen canvases on the ground in the fields and can frequently be found surrounded by chickens.
 
As with the Belgravia Gallery and Saatchi, we are selling this painting unframed but can arrange framing as always through QED framers if desired.
