I would think that Sol would appear quite a bit smaller when viewed from the Kuiper belt.

Agreed. More like a candle at 50 yards. Who are these artists?

Magnitude of the Sun at Pluto : -18

Magnitude of the Moon from Earth: -12

The sun from pluto would be roughly as bright as the earth from the moon.
