Through externalizing the rich world of his imagination Douglas Kitto’s paintings evoke fantasy, wonder and possibility in the viewer. Kitto uses traditional oil and acrylic techniques as well as illustration to invite the viewer into the visionary reverie he inhabits.
In his “larger than life” format and mural work, Kitto uses the element of scale to transport the viewer into the painting, creating a habitable daydream for one’s own imagination to wonder.
Known for his originality and inventiveness, Kitto has explored themes of nature, self-exploration and visionary quests, re-imagining reality and inventing his own utopia in the process.
Originally from Santiago Chile, Kitto has worked as an artist and illustrator for well over fifty years.
