Paul Schulenburg Talk

“Focusing attention on another human being in the act of drawing, painting or sculpting the human form, an artist can feel a release from the sense of self and his or her usual conscious preoccupations. The concern is for the person perceived, the work created, and connection of shared humanity. Ideally the artist will not make something that merely resembles a particular person, but will create artwork that evokes a universal feeling or emotion that transcends the outer surface.” — Paul Schulenburg
