My grandfather, Robert Dunbar (Bert) Sutherland, was his brother. While I have visited the Commando Memorial at Spean Bridge, I never knew many of the details contained in this bio. My grandparents and father (David Sutherland) emigrated to Canada during World War II and, as often happens, especially in past times, families lose close touch and information doesn't get passed along. If anyone has further information on Scott Sutherland, I encourage you to post a comment. -- Jayne Sutherland, Vancouver, BC I was very pleased and proud to run across this bio of my great uncle, Scott Sutherland.

Many fine art courses (which one would assume would be the best place to start)actually actively discourage realism within art and those who choose to pursue it anyway see the evidence in their poor grades. I found that realism was only really accepted in a few rare illustration courses, yet even within these few it was not actually taught but simply allowed. I have a theory that this is a result of a natural urge within all artists to rebel against what they were taught in an effort to create a sense of individual originality in their work. You just need to look back from the expressionists onwards to see this shunning-of-the-old pattern. I love the fact that independent schools such as yourselves have opened up but as you are not government backed I cant get a loan to cover the costs of learning with you, which means it will take me probably another two years to save the funds to do so. Which I shall do, but I am a terribly impatient young lad. :) I searched for three years looking for a government recognised university which would teach the practical, traditional skills of art and came up with nothing.

We are still a very small set up trying to get off the ground, so not too sure how we can help at present. But if you have any suggestions we would be very happy to hear about it, even if it's just to build a dialogue over the coming year. Kind Regards James Hi Ras
