Flutterby™! : Interview with Jock Sturges

Well worth a read: Interview with an artist: Jock Sturges, on his working style, working with models, and his persecutions by the U.S. Federal Government back in 1990:

When I went back to Europe in the midst of this investigation, I was avoiding a lot of compositional angles that I thought might be problematic, something I had never done before. My wife caught me doing this; she caught me crossing legs and on a few occasions even throwing towels on people. She told me to stop and said that I was effectively instructing my models in shame. Doing this was granting the forces assailing me an immediate victory – something they in no way deserved. She was right. I stopped. I have never sought to alter what I have done since.

Some good observations on life, working with models, and art in general. via Magic Flute Nudes.
