Paul Schulenburg and his Figure Painting Group will begin painting Mike O'Connor of Birdwatchers General Store at 3:30 and continue through the start of the reception. All surely to be lively especially with music by Sarah Burrill starting at 5:00.
Long before the onset of photography, portraits served to capture a person’s likeness. As well, portraits conveyed power, familial ties, virtue, or other aspects of the subject. Today, portraits continue to portray far more of a person than a photograph. They can speak volumes about an individual's personality and their life.
“Paul Schulenburg is one of those rare painters who can capture not just what something looks like but what it feels like. . . That alone makes his work a treasure.” —Sebastian Junger, author of A Perfect Storm
It is always interesting to watch a diverse group of painters develop a work from a live model. This congenial group of artists is eager to share their knowledge and will happily answer audience questions. Paul Schulenburg, and his group of figure painters, have created portraits of such recognizable figures as film stars Dermot Mulroney and Alfie Woodward, artists Salvatore Del Deo and Cynthia Packard, musician Monica Rizzio, and fisherman Keith Rose.
